Isn't Gracie already more popular than Raye and Massive? 

 

I can see Opener concluding todays announcements with NiN btw.

Possibly, but the only festival I know she’s headlining is TRNSMT.

 

at mad cool/rock werchter she’s not headlining , but I guess it could work as a co-headline with massive attack because that’s 3 strong names for one day on the main stage

Going to annouce NIN today or is that trolling?

Seems like it would align with the other announcements

Guys, RAYE is not headlining or co-headlining - it would be expliclity stated during the announcement. Obviously, it can change, if they fail to book another co-headliner, but I guess they already have one (that's why they announced MA as co-headliners).

That's two really big names on the same day. 

 

So STILL two days without headliners.

I am very surprised, but it makes me very intrigued to see who will still get booked.

 

Has there been any mention of Olivia Rodrigo? London Grammar would also be nice.

I feel like they're just keeping their options open. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the announced acts headline in the end

They are headlining everywhere so I’d be amazed if they’re not

They are. Open'er always indicates who's headlining by putting them on top of the artists list at the webpage. Maybe they'll get a co-headliner, but to call them "THE star" of the day surely makes them a headliner.

 

Judging by the website it seems Gracie Abrams is co-headlining Wednesday. A strong name with a different audience than Massive Attack, so it's a smart move, I think.

 

Anyway, great news about NIN, my gf likes Gracie a lot, so we're happy. The line-up is shaping up as very diverse, which we like the most about Open'er 🙂 And it seems we're going to come back to Poland with a group of friends this year 🙂

Yes, but take a look at last year program: https://opener.pl/program-2024

The headliners are ordered by date. Now, Linkin Park are the first name, even though they’re playing the last day. That's why I think LP are the only headliners for now. You may be right about NIN co-headlining (although I think they are still trying to get Olivia for that day).

Also, I think Gracie is not co-headlining, it would be stated in the announcement. 

 

Anyway, the lineup is really strong and there are still around 20 international names to be added. May be one of the best editions in the festival’s history.

Both are headliners clearly. 

[FestivalJamie]

if they add Sam fender / girl in red / London grammar / marina / Olivia Rodrigo / Bicep / Franz Ferdinand / Sharon Van Etten.

 

Any of those to come and I’m pretty much sold.

The Polish version says 'star' 😄 I guess they are still negotiating with some big name for that day (Olivia?) and want to keep their options open - either by announcing a real headliner for that day (that's way NIN are named a 'star', not a 'headliner'), or by bumping NIN into the headline slot (or co-headline) if the deal fails.
