    Couldn't think of a worse place to calm down from an acid trip than a portaloo.

    ah i dunno, its the only place you get where you can lock the door and you are on your own for a few minutes, its allows you to take stock. Plus maybe have a shite and a bump of gak just to steady yourself a little.

    there is one techno stage going all day and night.

    dance arena at night, and every bar (and there are a lot of them) becomes a party with different kind of music.

    you can find artists like rudimental or infected mushroom ob the regular stages during the day so i dont think you'll miss partying at all at the festival

    Thanks mate!

    Does the festival go until 6 or 7am kind of thing, like Balaton?

    Balaton is electronic music festival while Sziget is multi genre and cultural festival that goes from rock to electronic and everything in between. Check out lineup and decide if it is enough for you but just going there for one thing is not what Sziget is all about. Clashfinder may help you out to get a glimpse of what to expect (lineup order is not fully correct and confirmed). 

    My suggestion to you would be to go to a festival like this open minded for various music genres, personaly i'm coming more from a guitar word but i'm very much looking forward to see Sigrid, Apache, Stromae, ... + there is so much other stuff to do on the island. 

    Thanks for the response, although i have been going to festivals for 20 years, so am more than aware Sziget will be 'multi genre' (and that Balaton was purely electronic) and i wont be coming with an open mind, as i know what i like by now. 

    Im only going to Sziget as ill be in Budapest at the same time, but will there be enough dance music to satisfy me at the festival? As in, will there be 2 or 3 dance music stages pumping all day and all night? 

    *** Edit, i do like a bit of reggae, ska etc, but i doubt Sziget will have much of that, right? 

  4. I dont really see the point of this, Portaloos are generally to be avoided, unless you need a little bit of time to calm down from your acid trip. Celebrating them is odd, and kind of screams "look how quirky i can be!". If it rains, it will get messed up with mud as well.

    I've heard and seen pictures of uneven muddy treks to the campsite and heard the warnings that small wheels get stuck in the mud so it's best to use big pneumatic tires etc. We are looking at getting two of these bad boys which (I think?) have pneumatic tires but they don't look massively big.

    In your opinion is one of these loaded up to like 80% capacity going to get stuck instantly and be useless?

    I don't know why but I imagined the paths up until specific campsite areas would all be paved with some sort of metal grid to make it easier. That's probably just wishful thinking 😂

    Obviously it depends on whether it rains or not, in the lead upto and at the time you are using the trolley.

    Please note, if the ground is slightly 'soft' and you for some dumb reason wear wellies, consider yourself part of the problem that consequently turns the place in a muddy mess. 

  6. If you are going to bring beer, make sure you bring 500ml 6% Polish lagers. Don't be one of those clueless oiks who stops in Tesco on the way down and buys 2 for £20 crates of Fosters, that are 440ml and 4% ABV. Waste of energy carrying them, no wonder so many are left behind at the end in peoples tents.

  7. I signed up to this forum as im Sziget bound this year! 

    Can anyone reassure me that as a big dance music head, there will be enough for me? I hate pop and cheese music for which there seems to be plenty at Sziget, but im hoping on top of the few dance artists they have announced, there is enough to keep me busy all day and all night? 

    I have been to Balaton Sound before it all turned into cheesy EDM, is Sziget a similar sort of festival, just with more commercial bands?
