I should have elaborated - SZA is doing 4 nights at the o2, 3 of which are sold out

She's either other headline or sub pyramid - all these slots are accounted for now (assuming QOTSA do sunday other)

Her sell out tour was I bit of a surprise which is why additional dates were quickly added. 

Other stage sub maybe that was booked before the tour.

This happens a lot even when dates are guaranteed to sell out - its just how promoters work for whatever reason. The extra dates are already preplanned

Alt J on Park potentially freeing up a decent sized slot on one of the big stages compared to what was expected! 

[briddj]

Who is left from the main poster yet to be given a stage?

From that, we should know how many slots to come on Other and Pyramid.

Also a chance that one or two from the poster are Acoustic

[dannym]

What slot do we think Weyes Blood will be?

Nah they are the main 5 stages only.

Says who?

There's usually one or two acoustic acts on the initial poster. Waterboys last year, for example.

7 acts.  The Chicks, Amadou & Marium, Aitch, Carly Rae Jepsen, Stefflon Don, Maggie Rogers, Manic Street Preachers,
 

If you forget the rumours like QOTSA etc…. Then we have another 18 acts to come on Pyramid and Other

Good work!

Guess maybe one or two more if there are Acoustic acts.

Really good to know! Feeling quite deflated so far so hopefully we get some bangers!

Arena band and chief support for one of the Pink days.  Like I say… I’d be amazed.  We’ll get Acoustic next week so it’ll be clear

I've got them down for third from top below Lil Nas X on the Sunday. Will replace the Sunday singalong vibes that the legend slot usually takes.

Yeah - I suggested Chicks could be WH before that poster dropped and was told they're too big.  Def not Acoustic!

I still refuse to believe Blondie are that high up the bill in 2023. I believe there was some confusion as to whether they were on before or after Yusuf and I'm choosing to believe it's before.

As long as one of them is Pulp be happy....

[nikkic]

So is Alison Goldfrapp subbing Alt J? 

Poster would suggest so, but I'm pretty sure she mentioned she was on before Thundercat.

Willie J Healey gave an unsubtle hint that he was playing this year on social media, I would have had money on him being up the Park. Struggling to see where he plays now? 

[churlie100]

Right, updated to include the new Park stuff. Took some educated guesses at the top three lines, then the rest are just in order they were on the poster because tbh I'm busy today but still wanted to do this. As you can see there are about 18 acts still to announce on Pyramid and Other but we've got good ideas on who five of them are (Queens Of The Stone Age, Tom Grennan, Dermot Kennedy, Japanese Breakfast and The Joy).

Please accept it in your hearts that Pulp are not playing this festival. I enjoy the music of Pulp but I stg I've read their name on this forum twice as many times as I've read any name that's actually on the poster.

Oh yeah and as it's been a while since the original post, should specify that if it says confirmed, their position has been confirmed, if it says TBC then there's a strong, believable rumour that this is their position, if it says unannounced then the band hasn't been officially announced but there's a strong rumour about their exact position and if it says nothing next to the band name then they've been announced but I'm guessing at where they are placed.
