The sizes of the largest music venues at this year's Sziget are remarkable: the Main Stage of Sziget has an area of over 1,000 m², the Samsung Party Arena's seating area is 4,000 m², the FreeDome presented by Mastercard tent has a capacity of over 10,000 people, while the TicketSwap Colosseum is built from 3,000 pallets.
For the six days of the festival – out of the twenty-four Main Stage performers – seven headliner-level stars have been invited to the Main Stage of Sziget this year, the organizers say in a statement.
Florence + the Machine will kick off the first day, followed by Imagine Dragons, David Guetta, and Mumford & Sons. On Monday, there will be two "main headliners": Lorde and Macklemore. Finally, on the closing day of Sziget, one of the biggest stars of our time, Billie Eilish, will perform. Of course, every day, starting as early as 4 PM, we can secure our spot in front of the Main Stage as there will be concerts tailored for Sziget, featuring acts like Sam Fender, Yungblud, girl in red and Foals, among many others.
The epicenter of EDM this year is the Samsung Party Arena again, where different big party brands will be showcased every day. The first day is Q-Dance, who focus on the harder styles of electronic music, especially Hardstyle, Hardcore and Hard Trance. Awakenings will be joining Sziget for the first time. The Dutch group, which organizes techno parties and festivals, is responsible for the world's biggest techno event, the Awakenings Summer Festival.
Rampage, renowned as the "biggest Drum&Bass and Dubstep party in the universe", will also be part of this August's party circuit with Next Level. Higher Ground will also be the venue for "house" artists and emerging talents on Sziget. By now Be Massive is a dominant part of the Hungarian party world, with international artists.
Brazilian DJ and record producer Vintage Culture launched the Born Of Music Addiction party series, which is now coming to Sziget with names such as Adam Beyer, Reinier Zonneveld, Diplo, Tale Of Us and the Brazilian acts coming to BOMA Day, namely Maz, Ashibah, Mochakk and Vintage Culture.
Bringing together the best of alternative electronic music, Sziget's TicketSwap Colosseum – a boules stage reminiscent of ancient amphitheaters – returned last year with a reimagined and exclusive look. The venue, which has been further enhanced this year with a spectacular design, is stunning and equipped with state-of-the-art sound and lighting technology, and will star more than 60 performers over 6 days.
