That’s great news, thanks!!

And is the other headliner going to be a band or solo act?

A band.

Is it a band who’s already announced some tour dates this year? @Sziget2024_Leaks

Well that's pretty embarrassing isn't it

Especially because there's Idles, Placebo, Offpsring, Kooks, Keane, Two Door Cinema Club around in August...

We're debating Queens of the Stone Age and Strokes and we get Liam Gallagher.

Like, wtf.

I think I'm normally a person who understands that there's different needs and line ups are subjective and all but daamn. I think this is one of the most underwhelming bunch in the past few years. (This second phase, not the first one.)

I simply don't understand why and indie rock fan should go to Sziget 2024 and why Sziget spended money to book bands like Yard Act or Fontaines DC instead of making an even stronger pop/dance festival (which basically it is).

You all have your reasons but there's a lot of cool festivals around if this one doesn't match your tastes.

oh mamma mia

[Mondo-kun]

If we assume all these names are last two main stage acts for every day than we still need two more. Could be headliner and sub or two headliners, depending on how promoters want to put it on a poster

I'm in a special situation because I'm living right next to the entrance of the festival, so I'll hold on to the very end, all my friends are living in the city, I always bump into other friends at Sziget I haven't seen for a while, this is our "thing" every summer for 10 years now, we're all into different genres, pop, indie and punk, and Sziget was perfect for us because of that. That's why I'm a bit scared if it's going electronic - where are we going to go? I want to go to a rock one, some friends might want to go to a generic pop one, some wants to go to some extra chill one in some forest... Some only listens to Hungarian music, I basically only listen to british/aussie/UK bands... we've all got what we want at Sziget. And we like the "vibes" of this festival, and, of course, we want to spend time together. (And none of us like electronic music) But that's just my situation of course.

So I think Sziget is absolutely amazing because of its diversity in music and maybe large groups of friends could choose it because everyone's supposed to find something nice for their taste. I think this concept brings more people and more money than just letting it be an electronic one. There's plenty of that kind in the area.

Which would mean Tom Odell isn't sub, which makes absolute sense to me as most people only know him for one song!

Yeah but Azahriah is written below the subs in the poster but it's confirmed he's going to play before the main act (Halsey).

We also need to fit in Kaytranada, Charli and Jungle who would all be subs, no?

I've given up all hopes for Charli

Charli would definitely be mainstage but Kaytranada and Jungle are 99% tent imo

Names/day

10

15

14

11

16

14

So we'll probably get about 10-12 more names? Maybe at least 5 for the first day, 5 for the 4th?

We have co-headliners, maybe we also have some co-subs 🤣

I personally think he could be a main stage sub. Jain was a main stage sub in 2019 and she was quite far down on the poster.

Think Maneskin is looking quite likely tbh

[lovorovlist]

So @Sziget2024_Leaks who was the reason for the delay of the first announcement and who cancelled even tho it was almost confirmed?
