DEAR FRIENDS, #30
This year marks the 30th time we are organizing Sziget Festival, and the 30th time you will cross the emblematic K Bridge and step into possibly Europe’s most colourful festival, celebrated worldwide as the Island of Freedom. The bridge is recognized as a symbolic passage from everyday life into a vibrant whirlwind of culture, while the island has also become known as a place where we can all share a week living out our own personal freedoms, and the unique atmosphere and special feeling that only a pulsating festival can offer. This is a place where a kaleidoscope of styles, shows and cultures line up side by side, and where we can leave our worries and fears behind, not to mention the injustices and discrimination we might face in the outside world. A place where love and acceptance are a lived experience.
Anyone entering Sziget chooses freedom, and what we offer is the freedom to choose. A cavalcade of adventures, diverse musical events and a broad spectrum of concerts, unforgettable parties that go on until dawn, and captivating performers – from up-and-coming artists to global stars –representing a variety of genres on a dozen stages all come together on the Island of Freedom. Once again, there will be circus shows, theatre and dance performances, street theatre, arts and crafts, yoga, a riverside chill zone, and several hundred other programs and happenings.
But the essence of Sziget lies not only in the programs and many varied services we offer, but in you, who will return to fill this wonderful space with life, and show that Sziget audience has evolved into an accepting and welcoming international community over the past three decades –a community in which it is good to enjoy each other’s company and savour the moment without a care in the world.
By happy, love and take care of each other, and have a great time!
In friendship,
whole
Sziget team
Tamás Kádár CEO and the
Dear Szitizen,
Sziget Festival has been a celebration of freedom, openness and diversity since its inception. For 31 years, this week-long event has been an integral part of Budapest’s rich cultural life. Visitors not only have the chance to choose from the musical offerings of Hungary and the world, but also to enjoy a unique community experience that is rarely available anywhere else. Enjoy the programmes and let love and friendship blossom! And while you’re at it, take care of the wildlife on Óbuda Island, the venue for the event, so that the flowers can bloom too!
Have fun, everyone!
Gergely Karácsony Mayor of Budapest
Dear Festival Friends,
The Sziget Festival has become one of the most recognised and well known musical and cultural events over the past three decades. Year after year, it proves to be capable of rebirth and renewal.
This is the festival where we can all find opportunities for entertainment, relaxation, whilst being together. Though it’s true that our music taste may differ, and we may be attracted by different recreational initiatives, there will always be something joining us festival-goers together: the love of freedom, the respect for each others’ liberties, and of course, that we are curious about and happy for each other.
We are proud to be the ones to give Sziget a home. If you would like, feel free to look around our area, the third district, we welcome you with open arms!
Kind regards,
dr. László Kiss Mayor of Óbuda Békásmegyer

9 August, 17:00 & 10 August, 15:00 UNDER-THE-TREE
A choreography of dreamlike beauty characterised by physical elegance, tenderness and rapid movements infused with reserved humour. What initially appears to be an orderly pattern evolves into an apparently random series of lithe and playful movements.
By digging up the past, we grow to understand ourselves, and the profound connections we have with our families and ancestors – through memories, experiences and conflicts, this performance decodes the information hidden in our bodies.

9-10 August, 16:00 STAGE UNDER-THE-ROOF

SARRUGA (E): KREMAH / HANNAVAS

HOW TO GET TO SZIGET?
Sziget Boat Service: A comfortable and fast service runs from Jászai Mari Square every day. Travel for free with your Sziget CityPass by Budapest Card.
Taxi: Choose one of our official partners: BOLT or Főtaxi. Find the taxi ranks of both service providers at the K bridge, and BOLT will bring you even to the H bridge entrance.
wigo carsharing: Drive easily with our official carsharing partner and park in the dedicated wigo parking lot by the H bridge! Register and download the app.
Bicycle and scooter: You can roll up directly to both entrances on the bike path
along the Buda side, where you can store your own bike or Lime scooter for free in the designated bicycle storage.
Car: You cannot enter the festival by car and there are only a few parking spaces available, so we recommend choosing another transport option. If you are coming by car, buy one of a limited number of H terminal parking tickets.
Airport transfer: If you have a Sziget CityPass by Budapest Card, you can take a free bus service from the airport straight to the entrance of the island and back! You can also use the airport transfer service by MiniBUD (ticket should be purchased separately).
Transfer bus: End of party? Hop on a transfer bus at H bridge exit to Margit híd, where you can change to public transport.
Public transport: The easiest way to get to Sziget is via the H5 HÉV, the green suburban railway trains leaving from Batthyány tér and Margit híd. Your stop to get off (and on) is Filatorigát. You can also take the HÉV to get home late at night. With a Sziget CityPass by Budapest Card, you can travel on the HÉV for free.
Have fun!
