Virág Csiszár, Sziget’s International Booking Manager, presented the music programs for the festival’s major stages, highlighting that this year’s lineup is both incredibly current and highly diverse.
Among the Main Stage headliners are Kid Cudi, who is one of the most intriguing figures in American hip-hop and R&B culture, genre-blending superstar Post Malone — known for his mix of rap, trap, R&B, and country — and global pop phenomenon Shawn Mendes, who returned last year with a new album.
The headliner lineup also features rising sensation Chappell Roan, the electrifying Charli XCX, whose latest album has been hailed as one of the best pop releases of the year, as well as Anyma, known from Tale of Us, who operates at the captivating intersection of art, music, and technology, and is currently one of the world's most successful producers and visual artists.
But the star power on the Main Stage doesn’t stop there. Also performing will be Nelly Furtado, FKA Twigs, Rilès, Little Simz, and The Last Dinner Party. For the first time in its history, Sziget will welcome a K-pop act, with Kiss Of Life joining the bill.
Virág also emphasized that this year’s Main Stage will once again highlight unique Hungarian acts. Among them, Pogány Induló will team up with Parno Graszt for a special performance, and Дeva will deliver the biggest concert of her career, with a unique show created in collaboration with the vocal ensemble Napfonat.
The Revolut Stage also boasts an exciting and eclectic lineup. Highlights include Empire of the Sun, Australia’s most flamboyant electro-glam-pop duo, and the iconic Justice, known for their unmistakable sonic identity. Papa Roach will also perform, celebrating the anniversary of their debut album and showcasing brand-new material.
Also joining the Revolut Stage are Caribou, a defining force in electronic music for over two decades; British indie rockers Blossoms; the explosive duo Brutalismus 3000, who fuse early gabber, hardstyle, punk, and wave; and Swedish post-hardcore legends Refused, making Sziget one of the stops on their farewell tour.
And of course, Hungarian artists will have a strong presence on the Revolut Stage too — with major shows from Krúbi, Co Lee, and Elefánt, promising some truly unforgettable festival moments.
