Victorious Festival 2023 Discussion

[Jack01825]

With 2022 almost upon us its never too early to start speculation about 2023 right?! 🤪

What we thinking? 

I would love Foals or Muse to headline but too big right? 

Maybe Richard Ashcroft could come back? 

with Hard-Fi coming back onto the scene later this year i imagine they will be pretty sort after just like Tom Meighan, perhaps even kasabian??

Like i say just speculation but a bit of fun unless somebody has inside info 👀

Tom Meighan is hardly sought after 😂 was giving seatfiller tickets away to his 1000 cap show in London a few months ago. disgusting man.

Kasabian not a bad headliner shout though.

Ashcroft or Kasabian / someone younger like Capaldi or Ezra / Chemical Brothers maybe

True, im not talking about him headlining just being there as i know he is at a couple of festivals this summer which i would imagine will be the kickstart to others booking im 

Gerry Cinnamon would be great too

Not sure Gerry is a headliner that far south - might feel a bit weak. I reckon Gerry will be going into hiding now potentially - he's been touring a while now. He currently only has 2 glasgow dates booked and nothing else - think that's him done until the next album

[NorthernSoul52]

I think Foals are a credible shout for this, perhaps? I mean, I feel that they will be at R+L next year as one of the co-headliners - likely a MSE one, so the lower side if my geography is correct - but not a bad shout.

Possibly skew a little too... young? Stereophonics a bigger draw on the live circuit, but they're as family-friendly as you get these days.

[Bubblepopelectric]

There needs to be a really big headliner next year to put Victorious on the map! So many people have never heard of Victorious, which is a shame as it deserves to be more well known than it is.

George Ezra seems like someone who is about  the right sort of size.  Would go down very well

Would fit the same kind of vibe as the Sam fender booking 

[Jack01825]

Yeah I Agree , I would want him on a Saturday night and perhaps someone a bit more rocky / punky on the Sunday to close.

Yungblud maybe but probably not big enough yet? 

[Dales]

Some good shouts by everyone. I assume we will get at least one from Kasabian, George Ezra or Foals.

[Joe Mama]

Main stage:

Foals

Jamie T

Muse / Imagine Dragons

Castle stage:

Franz Ferdinand

Gerry Cinnamon

Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds

He's weak for a headliner vs this year's trio i feel

[NorthernSoul52]

Foals, but only if there's a piñata of Julian Casablancas for them to hit, by the sounds of matters in Scotland. 

[s30foster]

Is Victorious the bank holiday weekend every year? Have already reserved a room in a hotel for next year and hoping I have the right weekend. 

Edited July 15, 2022 by s30foster

[kelstar]

Yes, Victorious has always so far been the bank holiday weekend in Auqust x

I would say Pulp or Blur may have a chance based on the lineup this year having the likes of Suede, Kula Shaker, ocean colour scene etc...

Yeah….. they’re not even comparable sadly.

Thats like saying Ann-Marie is headlining the Castle stage so Taylor Swift could do it next year!!

Think there’ll be some big ish names around next yeah though.  I personally think George Ezra will be one of the headliners 

[atomised]

sadly Pulp or Blur are way out of victorious league.

yeah thought that might be the case, pulp will defo do something with AM as i know they are planning something big next year up in sheffield!

I dont mind George but Foals or Kasabian would be my preference

I reckon both AM and Pulp will do Hillsborough park gigs (although AM rumoured for stadiums and will no doubt do Glastonbury)

Yeah they’re defo 2 more possible names. Be happy with both of the too.  Was on the barrier for Foals at Glastonbury and they were so good

Liam has not done victorious yet and done a lot of festivals last couple years so maybe a possibility?
