How to read this

The base comes from a model fitted on who actually played since 2016, using the line-ups of Rock Werchter and ±45 European summer festivals (Clashfinder): previous editions, the counterpart festival in the same country, festivals that share many acts with Rock Werchter (overlap per festival: PP 24%, MSQ 20%, MADC 19%, NOS 16%, OPEN 14%, DTRH 13%), Benelux acts separately, the Belgian charts (the three years before and the whole career), a record from the year before, De Tijdloze and what has already been announced this year. Each festival has its own model: Rock Werchter books differently from the other three. Back-test on its own history: of the 50 acts the model found most likely in advance, on average 24% actually played; with that year's announcements included, 47%. On top of that, fixed weights for what the model does not know: tour dates around the festival (Ticketmaster), stadium shows, an announced album, airplay, a comeback and the festival's profile (size, genre). No rumours: what circulates on forums does not count. The chances are calibrated to the number of places still free; the classes are an indication, not a forecast by the bookers.
