Magic Bus Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) We're well on our way - driving to Budapest in our motorhome. Currently in Nuremberg, and it's really hot (32 degrees plus) but OK as I guess the humidity is lower than we're used to. Back on the road towards Vienna tomorrow. This is the way to do it - the lovely weather and beautiful places we're stopping up are really getting us excited! Safe journey everyone - see you on an island (rather than the east campervan fields at Glasto!). ☀ ☀ ☀ ☀ Edited August 3, 2015 by Magic Bus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a safe trip, bank holiday in Dublin, working till Friday and flying on Saturday night, looking forward! I'm a bit nervous, I've never been on a festival for a week, so I think I probably ended up bringing too much stuff and forgetting the weird essentials, I've seen some lists in the forum that have been very helpful, also the weather shows it might rain during the week, so I don't know if I should bring the wellies.

Sommerman Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 If I bought 2 payment watches, can attach it to 2 diffrent people? Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkrve Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Hi, yes I think if you bought 2 watches you can use them separate. They are just payment cards. Each card/watch is unique. So I don't think they can share a account. So each card/watch has its own money on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horegonzo Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 does anyone know if on the island there are some drinking fountains where you can fill your bottles with some good water? or is it necessary to buy water? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Child Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 does anyone know if on the island there are some drinking fountains where you can fill your bottles with some good water? or is it necessary to buy water? thanks From what I've read they have free drinking points around the site and by the toilets/showers too, definitely can't be expected to charge for water when the weather gets so hot! Also, how many forints are people planning on taking with them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkrve Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Also, how many forints are people planning on taking with them? i'm thinking of taking just a litle forints. On the festival you can top off your payment card/watch by card. and if i need cash in the city i'll find a ATM. just bringing some emergency forints i guess.... but maybe i don't bring any at all and just find a ATM when i arive at the airport.

Thaaaaaanks You do have the option of moving in early although you have to buy an early moving in pass, have a look on the Sziget website, think you can move in from Friday for 20 euro or Sunday for 15 euro. There's 5 of us moving into vip on Sunday afternoon (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently there's a "camping store" on site this year, and there's a big supermarket right outside which usually has some supplies too!

I don't think they do, but given that coke is £1 a bottle you can split one between you and a friend and the mixer would be 50p each, so still less than £3 for what is nearly a double with mixer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Child Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Just my luck to have a stinking cold this close to the festival, had it since Friday so hoping to shift it by Sunday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Bus Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Have a safe trip, bank holiday in Dublin, working till Friday and flying on Saturday night, looking forward! I'm a bit nervous, I've never been on a festival for a week, so I think I probably ended up bringing too much stuff and forgetting the weird essentials, I've seen some lists in the forum that have been very helpful, also the weather shows it might rain during the week, so I don't know if I should bring the wellies. This is a link with photos of the building process at Sziget, http://www.katechka.com/building-sziget-festival-7-days-to-go/ We're in Vienna now - a stone's throw from Budapest.it's absolutely baking - 35 degrees plus. So I really don't think you'll need wellies. If it rains, I think we'll be glad of the respite ☀ ☀ ☀ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exciting! Have a safe trip, I'm sure you'll have a blast, I did Benicassim alone in 2012 and met some amazing people, everyone's just out to have a good time! I can't wait, we're leaving at half 6 Sunday morning to catch the 11:45 flight out from Gatwick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babycake78 Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 is this thing of the "camping store" inside the festival been officially confirmed or is it just a rumor? The impression I get from the Sziget Official Facebook page is that you can collect camping items on site but you need to order them online on the Sziget website. I see a few things are already sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
