Do you think that ends any hope fo Bjork playing Sziget?

[jmcevoy2]

err not it doesn't - read it - it says:

Skrillex a VOLTon! = Skrillex for VOLT Fesztivál

Björk a Heineken Balaton Soundon! = Bjork to headline Heineken Balaton Sound

Can't wait until the summer. This will be my 3rd Sziget in a row. Just missed out on Stone Roses tickets for Heaton Park, but seeing them at Sziget will be awesome! Thought that both the city pass and festival cash card they introduced last year were great additions too. Though did miss the old style open air Meduza stage

Anyone from the UK booked flights yet? Looking at prices and they look a bit higher than expected. Roughly £160 with easyjet from London. Just wondering it's possible to get cheaper flights from another airport?

[marcwilson87]

Here is a mad idea - my mate wants to drive from Southampton! About a 2000 mile round trip, whilst stopping off a few times! I think if we pulled it off it would be incredible, but just wondering if anyone has done it before??

I've considered a road trip to get there. A friend went on one in September and stopped off in Budapest.

How long were you away from the UK for on both occasions Cristall? Bus sounds like a good option, I'll keep an eye on it, thanks!

You lot have convinced us! We have just brought camping and parking tickets! 2 Weeks, going through Germany on the way there and Croatia and Italy way on the way back! Any tips and recommendations are welcome!

[Cristall]

Directly after the festival you probably want to chill out, so I suggest to go to the Croatian beach first!

[marcwilson87]

That is exactly our plan! Think we weregoing to try and find a beach we can camp on or something! I'm looking forward to the roadtrip almost as much as the festival

Flights and accomodation booked in Pest. How do people staying in Pest get back from the island each night? HEV back to Margit Hid and walk over the bridge? Has anyone ever used the night bus?

[mr_monkey]

quick question for the sziget veterans... going to my first one this year but does anyone know if you can book a ready pitched tent there as you can do at most uk festivals? going to fly over to Budapest and really don't want to carry a tent on the plane or buy one over there to just leave once we are done.

cheers

Last few times when we've stayed in Pest found the the to easiest ways back from the island are either the Radio 1 boat which will drop you off on either side of the river in the city centre, or taxi...there is a very well organised taxi rank just as you exit the festival and the price is very good, plus they will tell you the fare beforehand (BEWARE of unoffical taxis of site though as these will rip you off big time)

So excited about the prospect of a road trip now!

Stayed in Pest last year - got a city pass wrist band which allowed us to get the HEV and get the tram back over the bridge to the Pest side - pretty easy and hassle free and everything ran through the night.
