Sziget Festival 2024

I can't believe this is even a discussion. In 2023, prior to Sziget, Mackelmore toured the UK playing at Academy venues with a capacity of around 1,500. The Killers play stadiums with capacities of between 40,000 and 70,000. 

Yes, Mackelmore is fun. I enjoy his set, but he does not sell vast quantities of tickets or add prestige to a line-up - and a headliner is meant to do both.

That's the UK though, it isn't relevant. I saw editors play club gigs, then headlined rock werchter. 

It's different country to country.

To the person who said Skrillex is not headlining anywhere: Now he is also headlining Lollapalooza. 
 

Still likely for him to play the same day as Fred, but I wonder who is the main show if this is the case.

Neil Frances confirmed. Went through the last few days, but it seems like no one has posted this yet.

Appreciate the heads up but old news I'm afraid, @minposted this at the foot of page 91 on Tuesday evening.

So, who do we 'know' we are getting so far?

Tom Odell

Kiasmos

Is that it?  Have I missed anyone?

Hoping we share a few more acts with Pukkelpop. Would love it if Sziget got some of:

Barry Can't Swim, Confidence Man, Jorja Smith, Maisie Peters, Miles Kane, QOTSA, Soulwax, Sugababes, The Kills, The Vaccines.

Also, maybe Michael Kiwanuka from Grape and Keane, NBT and TDCC from Summer Well.

Any chance @Sziget2024_Leaks?

Just the way out west lineup would be good 😃

[Jay98]

Would be great if Noah Kahan will be added! At least in the US and the Netherands he is very popular with Stick season. All the Sziget dates are so far unscheduled in his tour agenda. From the 13th of Augustus he will perform in UK.

I have seen Barry cant swim and Joy annoymous in the last few weeks at the Roundhouse and both were superb, both at Pukklepop as well, both would be excellent additions

Well, my heart aches for TDCC and Keane 😅

[rowexx]

Will the female headliner be announced? And if so, was she announced for any other festivals yet?

Hope so, might only happen in the 3rd one

[poelim]

@Sziget2024_Leaks what do you think of the lineup announcement next week? Will people get excited?

Are there any other relevant names than the ones we already know? 😄

[MB dude]

@Sziget2024_Leaks can you share what day Liam is playing? Please say it’s the weekend?!?!? 

[poelim]

By the way. Kinda weird to start selling daily tickets if there are still headliners missing right? So if the female headliner won’t be announced next week we’ll have one day without a headliner or will she be co-headliner? 
 

Which reminds me, @Sziget2024_Leaksis the comment about the AA+ headliners true?

[rowexx]

Raye has removed the Sziget date from her website..is she still up? @Sziget2024_Leaks

I'm hoping, fingers crossed, that Sziget has asked her to do that ahead of her being announced by them on Wednesday.

Of course, they just announced her early by accident
