Imagine Dragons as a co-headliner, so one big name still missing for Wednsday.

What’s the likelihood of Metallica playing?

Aren't they closely tied to Live Nation? I guess they will play a solo gig or Impact Festival (held by LN).

Less than zero

I think she has earned it, especially if album 3 is out by then. Gonna be a divisive booking though.

I'm wondering if a co-headlining structure wouldn't be more appropriate here. However, as for now, only positive reactions on social media.

[gregory]

At least one of these was confirmed as a co-headline right? 

It's not RADIOHEAD / FOO FIGHTERS / THE WEEKND / THE XX & LORDE is it..

Out of these, only Dua Lipa was mentioned as a headliner.
Imagine Dragons and 21P are co-headliners for their days. The Chemical Brothers are closing the Main Stage, so there's still a headliner missing on Saturday.

Closing the stage after Dua

[mln]

Disappointed, but not surprised. Time for some more 'alternative' names. The War on Drugs, please?

[mln]

Jessie Ware playing Main Stage on Saturday.

[misterplow]

Also Sons Of Kemet, Jehnny Beth and Moses Sumney. Good. Jessie Ware on the main is a bit weird though.

So who are the rumours or big contenders?

Muse could do one of the first two days based on their announced dates, Coldplay hasn't announced. Red Hot Chilli Peppers are doing euro dates through June. 

 

What's announced already is pretty weak headliner wise, i'm guessing they're waiting to bring out the big guns. Anytime i see Imagine Dragons on a lineup it makes a chill run up my spine, and not in a good way.

In an interview a few months ago, Open'er organiser said that there are high chances of The Cure being there. 

Looking at current headliners, I guess we need at least one big alternative/rock name.

Also, if rumours about Kendrick doing Glasto are true, I guess he may be back for Wednsday again.

If Kendrick is really coming back, I can see him next to Imagine Dragons on Wednesday.

Friday is already locked by Dua Lipa.

About Thursday - Twenty One Pilots were announced as co-headliners? If so, maybe Tame Impala as second headliner for that day?

I'm big fan of Muse, but I cannot see them as co-headliners in Poland. But it would be pretty nice return to festival site, as they previously played here back in 2007.

About Sunday - that was dream lineup for 2020 (Foals-Killers-The Cure-Chem Bros). Right now only the last one is already announced. I can confirm what mln has written above - Opener director stated that The Cure's arrival was possible - regarding 2021 edition. For next year's still no idea. But personally combination of The Killers and The Cure is perfect - due to lack of rock/alternative head in current lineup.

did anyone do the artist poll recently? Anybody interesting on it? it's closed now so can't access the list.

Nah, this poll was completely out of propositions. It was just four gaps, where it was possible to write down artists on own choice.

Yeah, 21P were announced as co-headliners, so we still need 2 co-headliners (Wednesday and Thursday) and one headliner (Saturday).

My bet is on Kendrick on Wednesday, ASAP Rocky on Thursday (although it's strange they still haven't announced him as he already has some dates for 2022) and RHCP / The Cure / someone with no dates yet on Saturday.

No chilli's at opener.

Strange there is no Polish date at all. Also, a lot of gaps between the gigs. Anyway, it seems we can cross them out.

That leaves us with either The Cure, someone with no dates yet (Coldplay?), or maybe some co-headlining structure, e.g. The Killers/QOTSA?

I think there's a gap early in their tour around their Budapest dates.

Wouldn't say no to Qotsa or the killers. I caught Cure recently. Coldplay would be fun.

I'm sure they've got something up their sleeve. Think Coldplay announcement next Friday.

[Rico_Pliskin]

No Muse, no Chilli's, no Coldplay. 

Any other possible heads apart from QOTSA?

Going off dates I reckon Royal blood will be a co headline

The war on drugs is another possibility and also wolf Alice
