Can anyone speak French? Lol

Pronostics appears to be French for prognosis so The Cure is being mentioned on the Rock En Seine EFestivals group.....

They’re asking who we think will be anounced tomorrow at 12 am

[rowexx]

@Sziget2023_Leaks give us something 🙁

[poelim]

Well it is still possible some big band/artist will play both Rock am Seine and Sziget and they had to wait for them.. that’s my only hope we’ll get a decent name tomorrow

The killers & strokes & placebo already have shows signed this summer, so I don’t get why that would be held back.

Any number of names (big or small) could've been held back to make tomorrow's announcement stronger. Alternatively, the festival might have had different plans that fell through and went for those names after they were booked elsewhere.

Or they are indeed not playing.

Jeez, you're right. Could've sworn it was pre-covid.

Looking at the setlists of Placebo in 2022, they play mostly arenas in mainland Europe.

I wouldn't rule out Lorde and Placebo as last 2 headliners.

🦁 confirmed  :))

Placebo should be subs or co-headliners at best at any decently sized festival in Europe, but you never know.

Yeah i agree i really hope they won’t be the rock headliner we are all waiting for

Btw I might get kicked around for this but, Imagine Dragons are as much rock as Mumford & Sons, how come they are not considered “the” rock headliner?

I think it’s bc leaks told us after the 1st announcement there was “at least” 1 more rock headliner coming

@Sziget2023_Leaks no more q&a sessions before the announcement?

[Matt86]

in the meantime, can someone please tell me what are these 2 events about ? what kind of music etc.. maybe special decorations etc..?

Drum and bass iirc.

[Matt86]

OMG ok I've just check these... so Sziget is trying to spend less money by inviting less artists/bands, and replace them with this kind of ... events. damn....

what we can expect tomorrow? 🤠

How good/bad is announcement is going to be in your opinion? Are we getting something new that is not announced for other festivals? 🤷‍♂️

Looks like arena will be having these "theme" days almost every night. Easy promotion for a festival i guess... Balaton sound also has these "takeovers".

For us, visitors it is not significantly different, maybe more alternative artist on certain days, so yes, maybe cheaper. They usually also had some kind of decoration.

QDance is hardstyle/Hard Trance, Rampage is Drum and bass, Higher Ground is EDM i think, Awakenings is techno music.

[rowexx]

was the announcement delayed because a headliner is a girlie announcing a tour?
