As someone who gets paid at the end of the month, today was the last pay day before Christmas.

 

If Sziget want people to buy tickets as Christmas presents (and they should want that!), they should really announce the announcement date today to put people on alert.

I’ve been going to Sziget every year since 2010 and have seen many changes.  Some have been good,  some less good,  but overall it’s still a great event.   organisation has much improved ove

I know the festival has bigger problems right now, but I think this is important too, and I would like to share that Imre Benkő passed away yesterday. He was an exceptional Hungarian photojournalist w

Agree, better than 80 names and delaying towards the new year is to release 15-20 names as soon as possible, to indicate the direction in which the festival is going, to make it feel "it is happening"

Announcement day is typically Thursday, 10am CET, we already know it will be before christmas, so most likely it will be on 4th, 11th or 18th December

18th feels way too late.

 

Suspect sometime between 4th and 11th.

 

But something today to say it's coming definitely makes sense. Unless, of course, they are in the hands of a specific act and their timetable of announcement.

Okay, sooooooo, with an announcement imminent (ish) and December around the corner, who is on your wish list?

 

Top 5, doesn't matter if they're headliner, sub, or playing a tiny stage at 2pm. Who do you want to see? Only criteria is they must have already been confirmed at another European festival in July/August next year.

 

Mine:

 

1. Turnstile

2. sombr

3. Nothing But Thieves

4. Geese

5. Lorde

      I see what you’ve done there.  If they stick with an electronic opener I reckon it would be someone more “radio friendly”. Rudimental, FBS etc
