I agree it’s not a particularly strong announcement, but it is a VERY small announcement compared to the full line up. Your problem is people will be going by this announcement to buy tickets. They will go elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way they think they get Christmas sales with this lineup alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post was one of the weaker headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much do you usually pay for accommodation for this fest Lots of different accommodation for different prices, based on location, quality etc. The more of you staying the cheaper it is. For 2 people you'll get something decent for around £550. For 4 people, £800 should be okay. All for 7 nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aokdub Posted yesterday at 10:39 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 10:39 PM I know this is only the first lineup, and Charli and Chappell are good additions, but this seems poor. No "big" names, and a lot of electronic acts. I know Charli and Chappell draw a decent crowd, and Anyma is a great show if they can accommodate the visuals, but as a main stage headliner for Sziget? I know people keep saying "this is only the first announcement" but the first announcement is where you put your marker down, with at least one big name to get people interested. People choose their festivals now, not in 2 months time. I know certain artists have certain time frames, but this all goes into the planning. It's disappointing as I really wanted to get excited for Sziget next year after skipping this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to find out how the post box is her. Also she might have been the ‘not really a rapper’ clue as she’s leaning towards hip hop.

FestivalJamie Posted yesterday at 11:27 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 11:27 PM 27 minutes ago, SzitizenX said: what if they're trolling us Definitely not. This is clearly the line up- aligns with acts touring and rumours or confirmations for other festivals. this line up is pretty tragic . It’s 10x worse than last year which was considered an unsuccessful year. For everyone saying it’s just the first line up, this happened last year and the line up never really got stronger from there. Sure, some new names and ‘headliners’ came along, but it was more of co-headliners as none of them could stand alone headline. If is true Chappell and Charlie will co, that’s interesting. Seems like Anyma (???) is a headliner and Armin as well (?), maybe Justice also a co-headliner (?). So we could be looking at 4 from 8 or 9 co headliners in this announcement . That’s just the to put things into a realistic perspective . Sziget has clearly taken a new direction, it breaks my heart- I love this festival and I love what it used to be - but if this is the announcement - it won’t get stronger than this. This is a sign of the level to expect from now on . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Charli and Chappell will be on the same day, they both are headlining primavera on two separate days (and primavera sold out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just listing the headliners. They are both strong names standalone. Remember the festival is now only 6 days and no longer 7. we can expect 3 more headliner names and a few more co/sub headliner in a future announcement. I would expect these to be solo or electronic artists Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misanthrop Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago Okay I never heard of Anyma but just found out he is one half of Tale of Us and that sold it to me together with watching some of his shows online. If Sziget pulls a stage with a new design and big screen then this act might blow our minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if Chappell is also playing Flow festival in Helsinki then she would be only available for the last day of Sziget. And if Charli is doing the same run of festivals then she could also only play the last day so it’s not entirely crazy idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would assume that increasing the number of EDM acts (DJs essentially) in such a significant way is a money saving act, but putting Chappell and Charli on the same day would fly against that completely.

dude111 Posted 16 hours ago Report Share Posted 16 hours ago usely there is a strong sub or co-head on the edm headliner days, so we will get it for anyma i guess. and as for the co-heads - when they want someone that can on play a specific day, they still take them. look at foo ->21 pilots day or shawn mandez playing early a few years back.
