Might be a bit early but where do you think big weekend will be held this year.I doubt it will be called Biggest Weekend as glasto is on this year.I wonder who will be playing.

The place where it is held is reveled Jan/Feb time I think.Normally the tickets go on sale in march.It is also Jan slam next month and I am pretty sure the last date someone wins big weekend tickets

Start predicting in the comments

I’m predicting it will be announced mid January with Stormzy as a headliner and it will be in Aberdeen! 

Most likely I will be wrong though! 

As much as I'd love it to be in Aberdeen (not that I'm bias!), I don't think there's anywhere really suitable in the city.

Anyone else find the lack of information about big weekend this year a bit strange? Greg said that the location would be announced last week and since then, it’s not been mentioned once. We normally also have a few acts announced as well by now but nothing for that either! It’s almost as if it’s all been cancelled or rearranged last minute.

It’s really weird.  Radio 1 have almost gone silent since the Jan Slam about it.  Maybe something’s gone wrong.

Its probably a case of waiting for the artist they are gonna announce to have a spare morning as they usually perform on the show on announcement day,   also something is happening to greg on monday i wonder..... maybe been kidnapped and hes gotta give clues to where he is or something also half term good timing for announcements

I’ve got a feeling whatever it is next week it’s gonna be brilliant.

My bet is Sigrid to play/announce first

I cant see sigrid being a launch artist, they usually go for a big name to draw attention in the press etc...  sigrid isnt there yet,  more likely ed sheran or miley cyrus or someone with that kinda status

Who do we think the massive name this year will be?  Ed Sheeran again?

I just took a guess she’s was winner of sound of 2018 last year and she’s always being played on radio 1 :lol: 

Ed Sheeran... He’s hasn’t realised anything in ages. Miley would be more live lounge then guest.

    • The shows surely being driven for him so all he has to do is talk between the tracks and he can’t get even get that right 
    • I thought the same to that comment, the license fee is going on me babes 
    • What with Jamie Laing, now him. Is it time for a new Head of the station?
    • He also just said coming up we have brand new segment, I thought they were a band 🤣 how did this man get on Radio 1? Aled needs his head testing. It’s an insult people who deserve to be on the radio 
    • Of all the times not mention capital it's probably now? Jordan is flying on breakfast with chris & sian and there's a presenter on friday and saturday that doesn't know who a main r1 artist, tldp are. Mentions capital which surely has to be a big no no given recent events and then says the licence fee goes to me. Talk about vom. We can't have it on here no more as it's that unlistenable and I'm about to switch back for m&m, but this is a Maya Jama x50 level mess of a show. Forget fading the microphone down, the entire show needs fading down
    • As positives go, at least Danny said what the last song played was and upcoming song played was. Plus I guess in that link are perhaps ideas for content (asking listeners to come up with bands from things around them, things that have happened to them this week). That's where's the positives end. It comes across as no thought has gone into what Danny will say next. It gives me proper flashbacks to some Jamie Laing links (especially that one show where he was unexpectedly solo). It's ironic that for all the duos and trios on the station - the one show and DJ that is positively crying out for another DJ to help show them the ropes is left all solo. At least with Jamie Laing they learnt their lesson and he's not been left solo since.
    • How he was just faded out at the end of the link reminded me of the Oscars music fading you out 
    • RPReplay_Final1713612277.mp4   You’re welcome
    • At a time when Radio 1 has surely lost listeners to Capital at Breaktast you’d be trying to protect the station so people switch back.  Certainly yesterday I didn’t switch back to Radio 1 at all.
    • Was abysmal…Surely Danny can’t be a contender for anything permanent when the new schedules are locked in I.e Matt and Mollies slot 
    • Alexandra Burke creating the phrase 'Elephant In The Room' whooooooooo
    • Zane Versus.... Whooooooooo. Do You Do Fridays? WhooOOOooo.  
    • The Capital Breakfast show is right up my street so far - such a fun listen. You've both been great on Radio 1 and are sounding excellent again on Capital A few quickfire questions: You've both been part of some great pairings on radio and on podcast - what goes into making a duo or trio work and sound great on air? Also, Chris - were there ever any discussions about you moving over to Radio 2 with Scott or had the Global offer already come first? Also how do you both go about managing that split between your radio 'you' and the private 'you'? You share a lot on air but also there's some understandably some stuff you keep private (famously Jordan doesn't 'talk about those things'). And how do you make sure if you're having a miserable day or are a bit low that it doesn't come across too much on air?    
    • What a nightmare link at 11.15am this morning. Spent 30 seconds waffling about the name of The Last Dinner Party as if he’d never heard it before, then started mentioning Capital and the license fee, and how it’s been used to pay for him to be there, and was then cut off by the start of the next song.
    • Have been reading this all week. She's such a brave woman. Just got to the chapter where she explains why she missed Scott's leaving event at Radio 1. She talks about leaving Radio 1 because her mum's health got worse, and wanting to quietly leave radio at 44 just how she first arrived on the airwaves at 18. Worth a read!
