Dance music powerhouse David Guetta will come back to Sziget’s main stage after a jaw dropping performance in 2018 and with a fresh pack of songs under his arm after releasing ‘Crazy What Love Can Do’ with Becky Hill, ‘I’m Good (Blue)’ with Bebe Rexha and superhit recently released ‘Damn (You’ve Got Me Saying)’.
UK indie rock queen Florence + The Machine will be bringing her mystical energy and music to Sziget’s main stage after releasing her critically acclaimed album ‘Dance Fever’ and following a tour or mostly sold out shows this year.
Elsewhere, American pop-rock band Imagine Dragons will be captivating the crowd with their emotionally charged tracks. 2023 will see the return of the British musician and man of the moment Sam Fender alongside the iconic Oxford legends, Foals presenting their latest album ‘Life Is Yours’. For the nostalgic, M83 will be coming back after a hiatus of live performing.
From rock to pop to electronic music, there is something for everyone at Sziget Festival. This new edition will see the festival feature another round of top tier performances in its more than 50 stages and electronic arenas like the Colosseum stage.
Other highlights of this first announcement include crowd favourite and dance floor connoisseur Jamie xx, alongside Moderat who will be making the fans dance to their dark electronic tunes.
