Music Festival
A giant of the European festival circuit, Sziget regularly attracts more than 350,000+ revellers to its charming island location in the heart of Budapest. The sheer scale of the festival – 50 venues and 200 daily performances over seven days – is dizzying. Musically, there’s everything from big names to smaller acts performing metal, jazz, folk, authentic Roma… (name a genre, and someone’s bound to be playing it somewhere). Culturally, there’s theatre, circus and exhibitions, and of course Budapest itself to explore. The only thing missing from the agenda is boredom.
