I’m in Budapest over the festival dates on a stag do - the hope is that Sziget pull something good out the bag to convince everyone to at least get some day tickets.

 

With some of the names mentioned though, incredibly unlikely. Has this turned into a pop festival? 

I guess it's a business which relies on ticket sales and they book whomever they think will attract the most paying customers within the budget they have while still trying, as much as possible, to stay true to its original ethos.

He is. Was born 18 November but it's N/A atm as the announcement will be delayed again.

 

Assuming we get something by the end of the month, how happy do you think you/we will be with it?

 

Shaping up nicely or not what you hoped for?

Budapest does not appear on the tour.


Weird. A contact from Live Nation UK told me they'd be going to Hungary as well.

Are we still looking at 1 or 2 headliners being announced or have things moved on?


2 are 100% locked.

    • Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.
    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
