Sziget Festival has revealed the first artists for its 2027 edition on Óbuda Island in Budapest. The festival runs from August 10–14, with Fontaines D.C., KATSEYE, Lola Young and Bicep among the first names announced. IDLES, Nothing But Thieves, Royel Otis and SOFI TUKKER also join the opening lineup across rock, pop and electronic music.
Fontaines D.C., IDLES and Nothing But Thieves Head to Budapest
Fontaines D.C. will bring material from their latest album, Dopamine Chamber, to Sziget Festival next August. The appearance comes during a major period in the band’s career, with increasingly large shows and a wider international audience.
IDLES will also play in Budapest, while Nothing But Thieves will make another appearance at Sziget after performing there in 2023. Two younger British rock names also join the bill. Villanelle, fronted by Gene Gallagher, recently released debut EP Measly Means following a series of sold-out shows.
Cruz Beckham & The Breakers join after sold-out dates in London and an appearance at Reading & Leeds. Together, those names give the rock side of the festival a balance between established bands and newer artists.
