This year their self-titled album would have its 30th anniversary. I think they would, yep. But there's no signs or rumours about it, so... keep looking for the 3-4 missing headliners ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yelo, the Parmiggiana Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 Yes they would, but they are kind of outside the Sziget demographic I guess - so it would be an hard pass IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swelsbyuk Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 When do we think the next announcement is likely to be? Before the end of Feb? Got a couple of friends who are interested but need to know more before booking anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a couple of friends who are interested but need to know more before booking anything. I'm not sure when we'll get another announcement, probably in early March. Sziget leaks told us that both Volt and Balaton Sound will announce their first names in December, so far we only got an announcement from Volt, and Balaton Sound is pretty quiet. 😶 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleFest Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 What are peoples opinions on accommodation this year? I like having the decent bathrooms/showers and have been staying in Siesta the last few years I've been, it was always handy to get to and from the stages if we needed to get back to the tents. Have people who have done basic camping camped down near the beach where Siesta is now, is it a long walk to all the stages especially if you are popping back to get extra drink etc. from your tent? Any advice appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Gwen Stefani & the band aren't that far away from her in terms of style. 6 hours ago, Matt86 said: I think they would, yep.

Got a couple of friends who are interested but need to know more before booking anything. I believe end of February is the perfect time for a new wave of names (even maybe a bigger one this time) ; in most of EU coutries, end of February - beginning of March is time for students holidays, and that's also a time when people make plans for Summer. So it's a good moment for festivals to give as much informations as possible. (in 2019 we had a big release of names end of January, before the holidays, and in 2020 it was mid-February, still before the holidays...)

swelsbyuk Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 I suggested Harry Styles as a potential headliner some months ago. I'm going to double down on that now: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#1SzigetFan Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Harry Styles would look like an Ed Sheeran type of booking, not Eminem. Edited January 13, 2022 by #1SzigetFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt86 Posted January 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Harry Styles is something like Shawn Mendes, right ? (sorry, I don't know much about these kind of acts 😅 I prefer female Pop acts ! ^^) I just "insta" and "spotify" them both : it seems Shawn Mendes still have more success.. ! congrats to him ! lool Anyway : as pop acts, I would easily take Bruno Mars, The Weeknd or Timberlake over those 2 guys ...

Out of almost 200 acts on there, there's nine I'd be interested in. Not a great return! Mind you, that's mainly because I haven't heard of half of them!

They've got one called 'Words you don't know' which is pretty good and has a very catchy chorus, but the rest sound like they could've been recorded by any number of hair-rock acts in the 80s.
