Budapest Opens the 2027 Ball: Sziget Unveils Its First Twenty Names

Budapest — It is the first big signal of summer 2027 in Europe. On November 10, Sziget Festival unveiled the first 20 artists of its 33rd edition, to be held from August 10 to 14, 2027 on Óbuda Island, in the middle of the Danube.

Leading this first wave: Fontaines D.C., KATSEYE, Lola Young, IDLES and Nothing But Thieves. Rock, pop and electronic music already share the bill, true to a festival-city that turns Budapest into a capital of celebration for five days.

The first 20 names

Fontaines D.C., KATSEYE, Lola Young, IDLES, Nothing But Thieves, Bicep (live), Tove Lo, Kelis, Sofi Tukker, Gogol Bordello, Royel Otis, Genesis Owusu, Florence Road, Villanelle, Cruz Beckham & The Breakers, Rikas, Kevin de Vries, Brina Knauss, Quest and Chris Stussy.

Bicep will play live. Between the guitars of Fontaines D.C. and IDLES, the pop of Lola Young, KATSEYE and Tove Lo, and the energy of Gogol Bordello, this first announcement sets the tone: broad, international, and built for every stage on the island.
