So....

Fallout boy is obvious.

Billie Eilish too.

Im hesitating about Coldplay one. But why the hell not?

@Sziget2023_Leakswouldnt come just like that without any clues, this is the game and these were the clues.

Im pretty positive about these headliners.

The first two comments weren't clues.

Is that a clue? 😉

Coldplay came from comment one, FOB from comment two, so I guess they're out.

However, 'Duh' came from comment number three iirc....

nop, it makes sense 😉

Unless you have a better idea ? To me, it is Billie Eilish. Considering she'll be headlining Reading festival end of August, it is plausible ^^ thx @Sziget2023_Leaks ! 😉

Don't have better ideas: these first bands would be awesome! I just can't see clearly in what @Sziget2023_Leaks is saying so I try to not have to big hopes and being disappointed after...

I think 'confirmed' might be pushing it a little! That said, if she's around and available I don't doubt that she'd be booked. Not sure she'd hold my attention for 90 minutes but bad guy and bury a friend are great songs. The rest all sound the same to me tbh.

I have a big soft spot for Getting Older, sweet little song. 

Happier Than Ever is definitely her biggest banger of the set though.

Not at all. Descartes is a pretty direct reference to Therefore I Am.

I really don’t get the big thing about Billie Eilish but at least it’s a change from Dua Lipa/Pink and it would be good to see new names. She will be a big draw and great for the demographics of the Festival but just not for me.  We have shared many a headliner with Leeds so it all makes sense with the timing.  This was a leak but not sure how true it is

I think the weekend also fits the bill perfect. But hint from leaks is clearly for the first headliner. We all know who that will be 😉

I know we assume this isn't real, rex orange dude is in trouble with the law.

And in the UK Tom Grennan is playing arenas on his current tour so no way he'd be in smaller text than Slowthai.

The hint with Descartés and Therefore I am is more than clear to me so I'm 100% positive Billie will be there

That's not the leak. The guy who posted this on reddit cleary said it's a prediction poster. The supposed headliners for R&L are Billie Eilish, Green Day, Sam Fender, KSI, Foals and one unknown name (rumoured to be Paramore or MGK).

Here's hoping that Leaks posts this image later today then.

If Paramore are about I think they'll be there as a headliner alongside Billie Eilish. Can't see Sam Fender being invited back. Would love Green Day but not sure they'd have both them and Paramore as headliners on the same bill. Think Stormzy is likely as sub, as he's around too.

Is Paramore big enough to be headliner these days or can they sub before Green Day or Billie Eilish?

They would surely only sub a huge long-standing act, like Green Day, in the way that 21 Pilots were with the Foos in 2019. I can't see them wanting to sub Billie Eilish tbh.

Do you think they will cancel Balaton Sound too?

Both Balaton sound and VOLT did not make profit this year. Balaton sound also does not have dates for 2023. 2 options:

they will full focus on Sziget which made profit

they had to make a choise between balaton and VOLT. Because balaton is different genre, they choose that one. 

[swelsbyuk]

If Volt cancellation just announced, they'll want to get the fallout from that out of the way before announcing the Sziget line-up. Maybe an announcement middle of next week?
