Sziget 2023

[branvan]

The Music Box was very nice! Have seen Old Sea Brigade there in 22. It's better to have concerts like this in the daytime, because there was such a noise around on the evening...

This is the Colosseum lineup

[kkpb8038]

Not sure who any of those are.  Any cool names from people in the know.  I’m looking forward to the world music, magic mirror and Europe stage lineups:)

Chaos in the CBD, Frazi.er, Mall Grab, Sven Vath and techno legend Jeff Mills all worth a visit.

My ideal is that we get a decent sub for Mumford and Sons announced. Obviously, we won't get that, but it's nice to have dreams.

If I like things like CamelPhat, Anyma/ Tales of Us, Fideles, can you recommend something from the Colossum or Party arena stage that I might like? Can't be asked to check all of these names I never heard of 😄

[kristofm]

Names we've received in May 2018:  Bonobo (live) * Oscar And The Wolf * Rhye * Flux Pavilion * Yellow Claw * What So Not * Michael Calfan

2019 Late april: Please welcome our last additions to this year's epic line-up: Macklemore * 6LACK * Michael Kiwanuka

So there's still hope for 3-4 decent names.

[branvan]

Please Oscar and the Wolf again 😎

True. In the beginning of April, yeah.

Times have appeared on the sziget app.  Some interesting info

[kkpb8038]

Lorde seems to only be playing for 45mins

[kristofm]

So based on this we're still waiting for

friday main stage 17:45
tuesday freedome 18:45

those could be interesting slots.

We're also waiting for saturday-sunday 17:00 for freedome, and saturday-sunday 16:00 main stage, but the latter two could be hungarians.

No new subheadliners though.

So the Friday 17:45 artist/band/whatever will only play 45 minutes, because Yungblud starts at 19:15 instead of 19:30. They might start at 17:30 so they have 60 mins.

So for the Friday 17:45 artist/band/whatever we're looking for a name that's as big as AJR, Mimi Webb, Caroline Polachek, Foals, Yung Lean, and will play 45-60 minutes. 

That should be The Wet Leg Spot haha. Although it's very unlikely, I imagine their price skyrocketed after winning two Grammys.

I would be happy with wet leg.

Since when do we have so many names for Arena, are those some new names?

Only the smallest slot is available. It will defo be a Hungarian name. The sub is Arlo Parks.

GF was walking at the main stage area today, sent me this worrying video about the state of the grass. The hottest, driest months are still ahead.

There are plenty of grass on the island. The main stage area has never been super grassy.

It could still be a mistake. It doesn’t make sense that there is an hour and 15 minutes break before her.

plus, it would make sense to me that the clashfinder is also updated by a Sziget employee, because it was updated basically simultaneously with the app AND it’s almost exactly the sam as the app except Lorde starting earlier there. 

It could be just a fan not believing the app or it could be an employee correctly adding it and not copying the mistake on the website.

It could but it's really bad if you make the same mistake twice.

Which clashfinder? There are 2. One was made by me and I think the other one is also run by eFest member but not sure who exactly.

Actually nevermind, because I meant this: https://clashfinder.com/s/sziget23/ But they have her till 9pm, which again defo a mistake because they won't have a 15 minutes gap before Macklemore.
