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.

I don’t think it will be stormzy as he’s doing Glastonbury

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.

Could’ve gone Pete Tong... 

Something tells me it’s another biggest weekend or at least a bigger weekend. That’s why perhaps

That wouldn't be a reason for the announcement to be delayed. Such a move would have been decided ages and ages ago.

Yeah, they’ll have known all the plans for months.  Maybe some logistics have fallen through.

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.

    • I’m have no interest in listening to GK Barry so it shall be Sounds or Spotify for me.
    • Agree completely about not having her on a Thursday, but 2 solid weeks would most likely be too much!!
    • Let's hope so, as forcibly taking off one of the best shows on the station one day a week would rival Aled's employment of Danny Beard as his worst decision.
    • Matt was doing this musical thing so could be that?
    • This GK Barry thing is so weird. Surely they’d give her a slot in the summer instead of ripping up the schedule at the start of the year. Casual listeners will think the change is permanent as it’s lined up with the rest of the schedule changing.    Surely doing the two week stint that James is doing on Going Home would be better. 
    • Oh I’d forgotten about GK Barry. I do wonder whether Matt & Mollie requested to drop Thursdays or were forced. It’s so random to have a different show on a Thursday afternoon
    • Some notes about the schedules released from the 5th September. James is still down to do Weekend Breakfast, it might be his last weekend. Nat and Vicky are down to do the 4th-5th September but generic listings on the 6th Sep. Callum Leslie in for Lauren on Life Hacks. Looks like there will be an Indie show on both the 6th and 8th September as it moves to it new slot. GK Barry begins her run of shows on the 10th September, it's called The GK Barry Show on Radio 1.
    • Early Hours Schedule Changes  Wednesday 1am/2am Radio1 Dance Presents - Moved from Thursdays 1am/2am Thursday 1am/2am Danny Howard's Club Mix - Moved from Fridays 1am/2am   Friday 1am/2am R1 Workout Anthems - Replacing Danny H Ckub Mix 2am/3am R1 Pop Anthems - Replacing the 2h R1 Anthems Show  3am/4am R1 Pop Anthems - Replacing the 2h R1 Anthems Show    Saturdays 2am/3am Danny Howard's Club Mix - Moved from Saturdays 3am/4am 3am/4am Radio1 Dance Anthems with Charlie Hedges   *No R1 Dance Presents Show on a Saturday Morning  
    • R1 Schedule Changes We Knew about before they got removed: 14th - 16th Aug & 21st - 23rd Aug: Mylo & Rosie sit in for Sam & Danni 15th & 16th Aug: Minah sits in for Vicky 15th Aug: DJ Kizzi sits in for Jerry 15th & 22nd Aug: Connor Coates sits in for Charlie Hedges 18th & 25th Aug: Jordan Blyth sits in for Alyx Holcombe
    • Interesting how it still says Group Chat with Nat & Vicky?
    • New weekday schedule starts W/C 7th September. Also as predicted, Mylo & Rosie start at 4am.
    • Agreed. I wasn't expecting the gap to be as long as this, and we've not even got an announcement yet. I know they needed to get breakfast sorted, but we knew who was taking over within 4 weeks of Gary stepping in.  
    • In fairness almost all the presenters this summer have done two week stints. It’s bizarre that the interim show itself is continuing this far into the year though. 
    • W/C 7th September. Rather unsurprisingly, a new drivetime show isn't being launched this week. Gary Davies is listed still. I wonder if he'll now do a stint on drive until any new show launches.
    • Of course completely understand it's not the most important thing to work on, but that doesn't explain how some updates have been made and then removed, that's even more work than just doing the update and leaving it!
