You can do what you want with your drink, there's no checking at the arenas. To be fair, there are no arena entrances, you can enter wherever you want. The difference is that you can bring your own alcohol in to the festival site at Glastonbury, but you can't at Sziget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds good at first but its actually worse than any other festival - at least you can drink in the campsites for most. If you get spirits in they won't take them off them though will they i'm presuming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a fan pit? Is it a big problem to catch a place in first rows? Okay not first rows, but some 50m from stage will be cool. No fan pit or prime pit or whatever, but for Foo Fighters you probably will have to queue the whole day (which is quality anyway) on the main stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerevans84 Posted July 3, 2019 Report Share Posted July 3, 2019 Hey all. Sadly selling 2 7 day tickets for the festival due to work. Don’t want these to go to waste with an excellent line up. Got the early bird tickets so about £550 for the pair, but open to offers. DM me One sad Sziget goer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 Hi all! Got some questions as a first time goer. How do you keep your stuff safe? I'm not camping so I mean like phone, passport, money etc. Thinking I could get a locker, don't feel like carrying a handbag around much. Also, how early should I be if I wanna get to the front row? Gonna see Years and Years, The National and Florence. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lockers are helpful, but bellybags are a great option - comfortable and easy to carry + you’ll always have your eyes on it. If you want to get front row, it is safe to say you should be there before the first act on that day. If you just want to get really close, then you’ll be fine if you enter at the end of previous performer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna see Years and Years, The National and Florence. Thanks! I actually dont believe you gonna have troubles to be in front row for Years and Years, The National as well should be the least favoured artist by the crowd (funnily enough). For Florence you may wanna be there from at least the second show of the day: in 2015 I had no problem to get to front row 15 mins before the start of the show, but these were different times, I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
