Maybe an interesting sentence in the article is: 'in addition to the fact that ticket prices did not increase despite inflation, together with Dreher we also managed to ensure that beer prices do not increase either.' Which means that Dreher remains the beer supplier (and not Heineken), even though Dreher is not yet listed as sponsor on the website?

(lol I noticed the same good news : Dreher still here ! 😂 )

 

also confirmed, some tributes acts , amongst which David Bowie, The Beatles, Queen, ... and of course ABBA ^^

Also interesting to note they mentioned something about referencing Live Aid

Ah, of course, it's the 40th anniversary. Jeez that makes me feel very, very old! 

[billybigballs]

Anything else coming out of the press conference?

 

Seems strange to hint at a new tent/stage and not use that opportunity to reveal it.

 

Maybe they feel they'll get more mileage from the announcement using their own platforms......or maybe they're still sorting costs and contracts.

Will be my first year at sziget. I ordered an early bird ticket with free szitizen limited kit. Does anybody know how I can pick it up? Is it linked with my festivalticket?

You'll be able to pick it up at the festival at sziget center and it's linked to your festival ticket

Colosseum full line up available (i don’t know if there are any new names), so maybe we get the full lineup for Freedome and the main stage this week, and we'll see what happens to the empty slots.

[CS2110]

The website has a countdown on it for a new stage arriving tomorrow morning. Unsure if this means it’s just an announcement of a lineup on a stage or a whole new stage we don’t know about

[ReljaGajić]

New stage announcement tomorrow (15.5.) at 10 (there is a countdown on the website)

 

[nathanh]

Will be interesting to see what comes tomorrow

[So Sad Simon]

So just the new 'Club' stage. Looks kinda alright, will pay a visit at some point no doubt.

 

Much more interesting is the new countdown, which is to the announcement of an upgraded stage. 

 

Looks like we are going to find out about Revolut Stage 2.0 tomorrow morning.

I thought they said the Arena will be upgraded. Also it would fit in the pattern to announce Arena after Colosseum and the Club.

Oh, really? FFS, got my hopes up.

 

Well, hopefully they start next week with Revolut.

 

They're REALLY pushing this Delta District stuff, aren't they?

That seems to be the biggest change compared to recent years. Not just the Delta District, but also the other different areas like the Szoho thing

i'm wondering if this actually will be visible on site, on the island itself.
 

like, idk, for insance everything's blue in the Delta District and everything's red in Szoho. Or there's a line on the ground that says "one more step and you'll reach Szoho". that would make a lot of sense and would be actually interesting and fun, but if they don't do stuff like that that's going to be even more confusing. like

- where's she performing again
- szoho
- i thought it was the buzz.
- i was told it's szoho, so which one is it now

you know what i mean

I think there’s a reason the only map that’s published on the website shows just the main stage and the campsites. Hoping when they release this years map it’ll be clear what the different areas are and what’s moved

Damon Albarn's Africa Express just announced a new album and few festival dates including Budapest but without exact location. Could it be Sziget?

I mean, there are only two dates announced, and both are at festivals (Roskilde Festival in Denmark and Cruilla Festival in Spain) in beginning of July. If Budapest is listed it could be at Sziget

[sandorbeni]

Now they've updated the list and the Budapest date is July 6th at Müpa
