Presumably Dundee are going to be a bit cheesed off! But I did somewhat assume it wouldn't be going back there. Hopefully they find another way to take a broadcast there.

And line-up being announced on Monday! Anyone want to have a guess at the headliners? I’m going to go for Calvin Harris for Friday night, Dave and Florence and the Machine!

Larna del ray might be one as she is doing a big tour soon 

I’d think she’d be a good one to perform at the festival. For coverage of dance and future sounds stages it would be good to have Alyx Holcomb and Charlie Tee there doing some to raise their profiles

Sigrid, Charli XCX, Mø, Aitch, Olivia Rodrigo, Jax Jones feel are possible. Wetleg, Camilla Cabello, Mimi Webb and Becky Hill seem possible on the line up think it will be potentially one of the stations most gender balanced. George Ezra maybe. Think will have some good first time players

Ed Sheeran performing on Saturday of Big Weekend. 

They are simulcasting the announcement on BBC Coventry and Warwickshire, I believe this is the first time they’ve simulcast on the relevant local station? Phil Upton, the DJ on CWR, faded out the song and they’ve went back to their normal show

Ed Sheeran is arguably one of the biggest acts of the last year, whether people like him or not, so it's good they've managed to get him on the bill. Looking forward to seeing what the specialist lineup is, especially given some criticism of the gender balance on the main stage.

So seems like Ed is the big Artist opener it would be good considering there hasn’t been a big weekend since 2019 to have a first time opener and maybe previous performer but never headlined the festival. I do think a band like Foals to headline over Calvin Harris headlining the Saturday and at least having that mix of having one or two female/nonbinary names.

Wonder if the Radio 1 Academy thing will return?

Another Big Weekend announcement today. Can't work out if staggering it out works, think outsiders to the station are less likely to follow two days of announcements than regular listeners. I assume that's who they want on board.

    • Nat and Vicky are being sent to Ibiza this year. They’ll be live on Friday 1st August from 1-4pm.     
    • Since Radio 1 Dance and Anthems have been allowed to broadcast on DAB, do we think they’ll be a proper schedule of shows like on Radio 1 Dance with the morning show and Dance Anthems at drive time. Maybe Lauren Redfern, Tyler Selby, Chrissy Cameron or Matt Hallsworth will be scheduled on named shows like Hits Radio 00s or Capital Anthems rather than the generic ‘Radio 1 Anthems’ show. Obviously it would probably cost more to produce actual shows on the station however.
    • There's been a lot of positive reaction to the Mylo and Rosie news so am interested now to hear what their shows are like. And yep wouldn't be surprised if they stay on beyond July as cover ever so often. And that Friday-Sunday news was hidden in the small print a little. It presumably means we lose Party Anthems all that month as that is what has happened this year with Big Weekend, Glasto for example. I certainly I hope it isn't Party Anthems being quietly axed full stop - it and Future Pop are 2 real hidden gems on Radio 1. 
    • I’m pleased for Mylo and Rosie, they were highly thought of in our local area and definitely worthy of that slot 
    • I’m thinking the same redding and Leeds etc 
    • -Considering how little Jamie has appeared since Vick went off on maternity, it probably would've been more sensible to have Sam & Danni taking over from that point and have him return with Katie. - Mylo and Rosie are apparently very good and one of the more popular local presenters who lost their slot when Hits went fully national. I gather they are very popular in Yorkshire. I can see them definitely see them popping up again beyond this stint. -Life Hacks cover is yet another good opportunity for some new voices (I know Yinka has popped up in the past). I have enjoyed Pete Allison covering though. I'm assuming most of August's Friday to Sunday 1-4pm will be made up of festival coverage.
    • - Jamie Laing will take a break from Going Home from 28th July. Sam and Danni will cover. - Greg James will host his show until 11am from 21st July (Monday to Thursday only). - Mylo and Rosie, who previously hosted Hits Radio Breakfast in West Yorkshire, will host Friday EB in July. - Charley Marlowe of TikTok fame will host Friday EB in August. - Tskenya Frazer will host Life Hacks with Lauren Layfield in July, whilst Yinka Bikinni will host with Lauren in August. - Jamie Laing and Katie Thistleton will return to Going Home in September.
