There are only 23 names for the main stage (including Fisher and all 3 Hungarians: Azahriah, Beton.Hofi, Margaret Island). 

Sziget confirmed that no more Hungarians are expected for the main stage.

Are we waiting for one more main stage name then? Or are they going to move someone from A38? 

Now it's 24

Lots of negativity on here. Festival veteran from Glastonbury, Life Is Beautiful in Vegas, T in the Park and many others. Loved Sziget last year seeing Amyl and the Sniffers and Sleaford Mods. Looking forward to Four Tet, Kylie and Fontaine's DC this year. Were in a group of aging over 40 plus and it's all about having a carry on with your pals. Music makes it better.

Any idea when the tribute artists will be announced? Do they normally get announced? 

[Mondo-kun]

Can strongly recommend everyone who attends this year to spend your Sunday night on the festival watching Editors.

I think we're missing 3 names from there and my guess is they will be Hungarians (no Hungarians have been announced to Revolut yet), and to go even further with the guessing name I'm expecting Krúbi to be one of them.

It's beyond me how this band is not bigger? (Sunday, "The Buzz" stage). If you are missing bands and rock from the lineup, check them out.

Agreed. Very impressed. Just hope they don't clash with Editors!

[SweetJesus]

More and more tickets available on ticketswap. Right now, 1111 available and 981 sold already.
 

Well done Sziget 👏

Just noticed they're playing the main stage at Reading/Leeds Festivals, same stage and day as Raye, Fontaines DC, Lana and Fred. Strange.

Quick question on pre pitched tents people. We always do pre pitched tents in one of the upgrades, but we are just doing basic this year. 

 

What I have noticed is the pre pitched tents in basic, did they do that last year? As they have not done that before. If they did where abouts on the island are they?

That doesn't really matter, but that they kicked the next 2 stages is sad. The diversity is melting more and more and only EDM will be the last man standing in a few years.

This is so cheap and bad. How much cost do these stage require? Maybe the sum of the cheapest Main Stage artist..? Maybe.

 

What can we expect at this point? I imagine visual installations will be sh*t either.

[festivv345]

Does anyone know when we can expect the announcement for the last couple of artists?

The "main" part is complete, we're only waiting for the very very very small, rather unknown ones, circus, etc.

I think the timetable comes out around late-June, that's when we'll probably see everything and everyone.

Last year, I really enjoyed artists like Charlie Cunningham (music box), Adam French and Amber Run (Europe stage)... it was "quiet" and beautiful.. Do we have artists like that this year ? Maybe New West, but that's all... 😞
