I would love Sziget to bring back "Day 0" and the festival to take place actually between the 9th and the 15th of August, returning to 7 days.

Me too, but the 6-days-only bit was a mandatory one in the long term contract they signed with the city council.

Sia is not just vocalist, she literally made that song

Going to cost us £300 to change ours. Really hope they're not doing it as I fear the backlash will overwhelm the line-up announcement.

They have a whole section dedicated to the date change in the info section on the website, this is really bad from them.

"I’ve already got my flight tickets, what can I do?

Please turn to your flight company to rebook your flight ticket."

I think that’s shocking that; they’ll have known about it well in advance of this that they had to change the dates so it should have been announced as such.

I remember when Werchter changed the dates by a whole weekend for 2015 just to accommodate the Foos (which worked out well…) but they at least announced it months before confirming any bands so people had time to change plans.

    • Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.
    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
