Or no sam Smith. But i think no maneskin.

Why do you think no Maneskin or no Sam Smith?

Because only 2 names from Pinkpop are coming to Sziget. Those are Sam Smith & Louis Tomlinson, most likely.

Ah, okay. Missed that bit of info. Thanks.

[billybigballs]

How many from Victorious @Sziget2024_Leaks?

[Saeglopur]

Will you be announcing anything in December, @Sziget2024_Leaks ?

Are we getting Wet Leg to play the officially allocated 'Wet Leg' slot? 😉

I absolutely love how we named that slot. 😄

[gingerevans84]

Do we need an announcement is very close? Need to sort out my annual leave for work and the summer hols are being snapped up!

To be fair, Maneskin's always been wishful thinking without any clues.

(Like Wet Leg last year. If we write about it enough it may happen lol)

[Mondo-kun]

Is one of them the band which never smiles, yet their name tells different?

The kooks 🤞😩

[billybigballs]

Lots of festival announcements coming thick and fast as we enter the festive season.

Hint, hint @Sziget2024_Leaks

Wet Leg

They're so far from maybes 😢

The Kooks, Flogging Molly, Two Door Cinema Club, Idles are my maybes, Wet Leg and Soft Play are unlikely wishes.

@Sziget2024_Leaks could you help me out here please? how many of these 6?

[On The Blend]

If you are about @Sziget2024_LeaksI think it's much more fun to get little hints rather than just confirming yes or no. This isn't a criticism, more just a personal preference that if people guess right I'd rather not hear 'yup, 100% they're booked'

Welp, this is actually kind of disappointing compared to all the names popping up at nearby festivals

[iamdebrii]

I'll admit that it seems a bit underwhelming for now but Sziget always seem to have an ace up their sleeve so I'm quite curious

They didn't have very big acts headliner-wise for their 25th anniversary edition, except P!nk and Kasabian:

Wow, so many of these names are around this year.
edit: btw Kasabian had one of the smallest crowds of these headliners that year.

IMO it was one of the best editions undercard-wise.
Something for everyone: indie-rock, punk-rock, alternative metal, hip hop, EDM...

It was but there were so much more less people there than in 2016 (452.000 in 2017 vs 496.000 in 2016):

That's aged quite well looking at it but I'm sure I remember it getting absolutely torn apart on here when it was getting announced
