Sziget Festival

Hungary’s Sziget Festival has unveiled its second wave of artists for 2025.

The six-day camping festival, one of Europe’s largest multi-genre music events, will return to Budapest’s Óbuda Island—nicknamed the “Island of Freedom” during Sziget each year—from August 6-11, with new headliners A$AP Rocky, Post Malone, and Shawn Mendes in tow.

Several major electronic players are also among the 19 new artists announced today, including indie-dance luminary Caribou, centaur techno sensation horsegiirL, surging London DJ Ahadadream, and a high-energy drum & bass pairing in Hedex B2B Bou.

Other fresh names include alternative rap duo Joey Valence & Brae, New Zeazland-to-NYC indie duo Balu Brigada, Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Helado Negro, Ecuadorian-Swiss psych-rock group Hermanos Gutiérrez, Swedish hardcore band Refused, and more.

They’ll join previously announced headliners Anyma, Charli XCX, and Chappell Roan, and additional leading dance acts such as Justice, Armin van Buuren, Boris Brejcha, The Blessed Madonna, Brutalismus 3000, 999999999, and Hot Since 82 among others. Check out the full lineup below. More names will be added in the coming months.

Sziget Festival, which earned a debut B+ grade on EDM Maniac’s Festival Report Card in 2023, welcomes close to 400,000 attendees annually and features over 50 stages of all sizes in addition to wellness activities, workshops, musical theater, comedy shows, and more.
