50 New Acts for Hungarian Sziget – Who's Headlining?
- 23 Mar 2026 6:00 AM
On Friday, Sziget Festival organizers revealed nearly 50 performers from 25 countries. The new additions include Skepta, Jorja Smith, Peggy Gou, Natasha Bedingfield, Sigrid, and Soulwax.
The festival's international music lineup is almost complete, with just one main stage act still to be announced, according to Viktória Vető, Sziget’s press officer.
Among the highlights is British rapper Skepta, one of the UK's best-known names in the genre. He's due to release a new solo album soon after a long break and plans to preview it at Sziget. Joining him is Jorja Smith, the talented British pop artist who mixes R&B, soul, and modern pop.
DJ and producer Peggy Gou will also perform. She's gained fame on the global club scene for sets that blend house and techno.
Natasha Bedingfield, known for her iconic 2000s pop anthem “Unwritten” — which topped charts worldwide — brings her positive-energy songs about self-confidence and freedom. A new generation has rediscovered her work in recent years.
Norwegian pop star Sigrid, with her powerful voice, rounds out the list. She broke through internationally in 2017 with “Don’t Kill My Vibe” and released her emotionally charged third studio album last October.
Organizers had already announced Twenty One Pilots, Florence + The Machine, SOMBR, Lewis Capaldi, Bring Me the Horizon, Tash Sultana, Zara Larsson, and others earlier.
This year's Sziget will take place in Budapest from August 11 to 15.
