Is it 100% sure Tove Lo won’t come? She is doing Flow Festival and Rock en Seine as well. 

[Newjem]

Also Blur were announced for Flow festival (13/8) as well which makes them less likely for Sziget now…

Actually, I think it is not entirely clear for artist leaks ruled out, whether he meant just the first announcement or not.

I'd say that pretty much counts them out tbh. Gutted.

Foo Fighters ruled out. Their shows at German Ring/Park are European exclusive

They will be still be playing guitar Solos by August dont worry. 😁

[swelsbyuk]

It's February next week!! 

Okay, we probably won't get an announcement until 23rd but still......

Any thoughts on the genre of the outstanding two headliners? Rock and....? 

Who's in the running? Foos and Blur seem to be out but The Strokes seem a good bet (and fingers crossed they bring YYYs with them). 

Who else is a possibility - headliner or otherwise? I'd be happy if we got any of these: 

FKA Twigs is at Flow on 11/8

Aurora is at Parken Festival on 18/8

The Killers & Wet Leg are at R&L

Placebo and Chemical Brothers at Rock En Seine

 

[Matt86]

The Strokes / Placebo / Green Day. 2 of those 3 🙂 Yep, I still believe in Green Day lol ^^

I agree for Aurora, that "genre" is missing for the moment, and Rina Sawayama should have the chance to be there, since Mimi Webb is here.. (and way less talented IMO ..)

Also, I need some more Rock acts with energy, I'd take The Hives because it's always great ( AND a new album is coming.. ) , Turnstile and Shaka Ponk ;

In electro-EDM, I WANT Robin Schulz !! only 1 date the 11 August in Spain so far... Purple Disco Machine and VINAI would also be nice ^^

[billybigballs]

Would love Green Day to be there. Think they'd be a great fit too. 

Liam Gallagher seems to be playing a few festivals this summer too, wouldn't be too surprised to see him. Not sure if he's a headliner in Hungary or not though.

My ideal would be The Chemical Brothers as their show is amazing. Again, not sure if they're headliners anymore or not.

in 2018 he was performing before Dula Peep, so no, he is not a headliner material in Hungary

[Cranjis]

Is Sziget really going to book only one DJ to play at the MainStage like last year? Seems odd considering how big of a hit Calvin Harris was.

Like Robin Schulz for example, he is big enough to sub Guetta or to sub someone else, but I doubt they would do that.

Alan Walker definitely should not have been at the party tent and should have been at the MainStage considering his drawing, but idk

[ReljaGajić]

I think that we are forgetting that we can get Sam Smith as a headliner 🫣 Untold festival (which is happening in Romania one week before Sziget) hinted something about him a while ago and he got announced for Mad Cool and Nos alive too, so he is doing festivals... 😬

[kkpb8038]

Id go mad for two from strokes/placebo/chemical brothers as headliners.    Some classic indie would be good.  I think pulp are touring if blur are out.

 

always look forward to the lineup from world music stage and magic mirror:)

Pulp, Placebo and probably even Chem Bros won't headline Sziget anytime soon. They're not interesting (and relevant) enough for the crowd they're trying to attract nowadays.

Also World Music Stage was scrapped in 2019, wasn't it? Unless you mean the smaller alternative - Global Village, of course...

Yep, just looked, Sam's in North America throughout Sziget.

Thank God.

And yet Imagine Dragons are. How depressing.
