I really can't envision a festival the size of Sziget having Empire of the Sun as a main stage headliner in 2025. Sub at best imho or, hopefully, A38 headliner. ASAP also only sub-level imho, or a co at best.

 

 

 

Sziget have a lot of headliners, where you think WTF. Acts like Wiz Khalifa, Major Lazer, kasabian(europe). 

 

Empire of the Sun, no i don't think they would headline. Sziget though with 6 headliners, does have the scope to have a couple of weak ones every edition. EOTS are perhaps to niche to headline, would work beautifully at a late night fest that doesn't close the main at 11.

I’m guessing headliner but it wouldn’t look right to me in terms of all the headliners

 

Charli - pop

Chappell - pop

Timberlake - pop

Anyma - EDM

ASAP - not a very strong rap name

Empire of the Sun..?? Dance pop

 

Also I still don’t get what’s happening with Post Malone. They literally posted a “post box” emoji after Leaks bave pretty much confirmed it as well.

 

Unless Asap is coheadlining Post?

 

 

 

ASAP Rocky not a big rap name? It doesn't get much bigger than that. From the current lineup only Chappell Roan has more more monthly listeners than him. But still huge numbers for someone who hasn't released any project for few years now. He will definitely bring a huge crowd. Also he has album coming in 2025. You guys are clueless about anything thats not playing in the radio. He is headliner through and through😀

2 questions.

 

Has he headlined a major festival before? 

 

Do people actually still listen to the radio?

When he was announced for 2020 edition he was a sub, and you say he hasn't released anything for a few years so why would he now be classed as a headliner?

I don’t listent to the radio. He is amongst my favourite rappers. He would be amingst the smaller headliner acts if he in fact headlines.

 

I could probably name 20 other rappers that would bring a bigger crowd than him. And there aren’t many rappers that could headline a major festival.

Pretty sure the core audience for rap is 14 year old boys. Doubt they'll be buying too many tickets.

Still convinced it was just a way of disappearing as they knew what our reaction to the line-up would be, especially considering they'd promised a return to focusing on delivering a great undercard. And then they delivered the worst undercard in probably fifteen years.

guys am I really the only one who thinks he was actually being fed fake info and they were onto him? and that the user who randomly went ACC the night before the reveal might actually be our old pal in a new, much more demure, dress?

Judging b they way the longer messages were written, I would say that Leaks was almost certainly a guy. I was convinced, for a long time, that it was someone relatively senior at Sziget HQ, but a couple of most recent posts implied he didn't have quite the insight I'd previously believed he had.

After hearing Empire of Sun doing Europe festivals next year

( don’t know about sziget yet still ).

 

I’m also hearing the band the Temper trap are trying to do a few festivals too for there 15th anniversary of Sweet Disposition album 

 

wont be sub headliner or anything just undercard material and Again don’t know if they be at sziget but just throwing it out there like I did with the empire of the sun rumours.

Happy New Year! I hope they'll announce The Strokes because I'm going to Electric Castle too and they already have QOTSA 😁

I think we could get Robbie Williams 

Justin Timberlake, ASAP Rocky, 

 

I do think that one will come from the list Tate McRae, Olivia Rodrigo or Sabrina Carpenter. One of them is likely to come and no matter people say, Tate is impossible, there is chance after some sentences (e.g. when I wrote on Insta that I want at least one more woman headliner, they replied that you're so greedy). But the other 2 are definitely more likely. 

 

London Grammar, Machine Head are also likely.

 

The Weeknd, Lady Gaga are expected to go on a tour, but I think they will choose the Stadiums instead of open-air festival if they choose Europe.

Do you guys think that Dua Lipa is possible? He is touring 2025 in Germany, Czech Republic, France but Hungary is again not on the list. 

I'm pretty sure that Leaks said not.

 

Also, I think they've started with a really strong set of headliners (although I still think the undercard is weak af).

 

They have the opportunity to book a slightly more interesting headliner than being 'safe' with Dua Lipa for the third time in six editions (that said, I would still be happy if she was announced!)

Tate is literally impossible, doesn't matter what they wrote on Insta.

 

Machine Head and Sziget? Maybe 15 years ago but not in 2025.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
