For those who aren't aware, and are wondering why posts of obscure British festivals are being posted on here this week, Superstruct Entertainment, which owns Sziget, also owns around 80 other festivals across the globe and can, and do, book artists for a number of different festivals at a discounted rate.

 

So, that's why the line up at the following festivals can sometimes have a bearing on who we see at Sziget:

 

Boardmasters

YNot

Kendal Calling

Fib - Benicassim

Victorious

Tramlines

Flow

Oya

Truck

 

Victorious is announcing next week too btw

RHCP? Surely much too big for Victorious.

 

Although 🌍 🚶‍♂️ could equal = Around the World.

 

Nah, never gonna happen.

[Newjem]

RHCP are not touring next year.

I think they have been really hinting at Chappell Roan

Like the 💒 emoji, and maybe even the post talking about drag shows

Im pretty sure shes on..that s such a random emoji to use + her being announced for a bunch of fests close to Sziget + Leaks saying there s big female name + Leaks saying they were in negociations with her

If Sziget didn't have Chappell it would be a massive swing and a miss. I'm confident that she'll be there.

I noticed Sam Fender hasn’t been mentioned for a while is he out of the running? He was on the wish list

I think leaks mentioned the clue wasn't for headliner, but it was referring to the song title

This kind of posts is what made Leaks & Ken19 run away from here. They are workers of the music industry, where there are a lot of confidentiality in the contracts. They can hint, they can say something the days before the annoucement, buy if people ask if XXXXX band is going to perform you can create them trouble and maybe risk their jobs os a relative/friend job, and one day they decide to run away when they feel pressured.

I think anyone can ask anything. It's up to them to decide which questions they want to answer, and how clearly.

Of course, but you saw the result with both of them.

So what's easier, to let an individual who understands their own situation decide on what they share and what not, or regulate a complete forum that anyone can access, that random people can visit any time, and determine what kinds of questions they can ask? Come on. Leakers are adults, who know perfectly what they can share, what the level of risk is, know their own circumstances, etc.

Tbh we don’t know what resulted in their retreat but I guess it was not the questions, rather the replies.

[rowexx]

Wait but isn’t this whole “leaking” thing approved by Sziget and others fests that do this kind of things to get people hyped??

But what make you think he left the forum. His last post is from yesterday. He used to come and leave when he wants to do it. Sometimes he's not there fow a few weeks and some other day he comes more often. 
And maybe is just doing is job by being here and giving hints to a community of people who really like sziget. 

 

He should just not confirmed the name his giving to us like he did with Blossoms and more make us guess

It's true, I agree with you. There was another member who was here in 2021/2022, it was a big leaking member.
I remember he said that on that day X there would be an announcement and mentioned the bands' initials.

I highly doubt someone would risk their job . It’s most likely the leaks are approved by Sziget and it’s done to try and create a hype around the festival and book ticket sales with forum -readers .

If Sziget wants to create hype would use their own social media instead of a British forum. 
 

Giving información about confidential contracts is risking your job. Some bookings are only known by a little number of persons really close to the core to the booking and management team of the promoter.

Weird one what about Empire of the Sun  they hinted at doing festival run and tour in Europe next year maybe ?? 
 

 

[billybigballs]

So, moving away from whether Leaks has truly gone into hiding, or whether it was just part of an elaborate clue to hint at The Prodigy (I believe the latter), do we think the announcement is coming next week or not?

[CCester]

First announcement on the 5th at 10am@CET!
