kristofm Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 Btw they are advertising Sziget by claiming there will be 500+ artists, did we already have that much last year? Also, they're recruiting small Italian bands on Facebook. Maybe there will be small, nation-specific stages as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were few years ago on Europe Stage I think and I remember that the atmosphere was crazy during their gig, the crowd was incredible especially during this song: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The reason is that the organizers of the Light Stage schedule are the guys from Alternativa Events who are Italians. In the past, they also had a dedicated camping area, called Alternativa Camping, with "Italian hospitality". Back then they were involved in the Europe Stage schedule, as they put that stage close to their camp side.

misanthrop Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 (edited) Syd For Solen in Copenhagen (same week as Sziget, last year they shared a few names) just announced Sam Fender, Confidence Man and Overmono for their Friday program. It also seems like the name under Sam Fender on the lineup is Hozier. Would you like any of these on Sziget? We had Overmono in 2024 and Confidence Man in 2023, but wouldn't say no to any of them Edited January 16 by misanthrop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had Overmono in 2024 and Confidence Man in 2023, but wouldn't say no to any of them Expand I'm a big fan of Sam Fender. First saw him in 2018 at a tiny venue in Leeds (capacity around 150) and seen his popularity grow and grow. Seen him six times, most recently last month. I would love for him to be there. That said, judging by the reaction to him being announced as headliner at Rock Werchter and Nos Alive, his UK popularity does not appear to translate into mainland Europe so I'd understand if others don't share my enthusiasm. As for Confidence Man, they're such an entertaining act that I defy anyone to not be delighted by them being announced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It’s not Hozier because the same word is also repeated under Confidence Man and Overmono so must mean something else (like ‘name’ or ‘TBA’).

sandorbeni Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 I really like Hozier so I would be very happy if he's added to the lineup. I'm not sure if they would put him as a standalone headliner or co-headline with someone like Fender or before a Dj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS2110 Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 With Justice and Nelly Furtado both playing the same day, does this mean Justice will be playing a38/revolut or could it be a case of Nelly subbing, with a Justice closing set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine Fender being happy with a glorified sub slot given that he's headlining every other festival he's playing this summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djym12 Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 If the stages remain the same, Justice would be too big for the Revolut stage. Maybe Nelly could take the 17:30 slot, and Justice the 19:15? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Hozier has never played in Hungary, perhaps its 1 country he does nothing. Would be a massive jump from never playing Hungary to headliner. If he was a huge headliner around the world I'd say yeah, but is about the size of fender. Judging by his tours, it's the American market he is after.

Sub headliner? That’s strange to me. Daylight Armin show? Then yes, Justice is a bit big for Revolut, but also not great in the daylight on the main stage, plus no way Nelly is playing 3rd down from headliner.
