I would also recommend going into town one night before or after who you want to see and take In the ruins pubs. 

And I am not gonna go out during the festival since I am planning to spend my time at the festival from 12 or 13 until 5 in the morning next day, because my schedule is overbooked and there is a lot of bands I wanna hear + performing acts that I wanna see (circus, dance performances,..)

I am arriving 2 days before the festival and staying in the city 2 days after the festival, to explore the city (again) and go out with friends, visit museums,... 🙃

Do we think the “nature reserve” area means it is unavailable for basic camping?

Even more, my friends plan to camp using only basic camping and they're really nervous about that area marked as "free camping" could be the only place to camp without additional upgrades.

Yeah same! Seems like not as much space as previous years for Basic

If that will be the case, this is the end of Sziget as I knew and loved. 

Since 2014 not a year has passed without them restricting the boundaries of the actual freedom on the island or putting a price tag on an experience or increasing the price without improving a real improvement of the offer.


The first time I came a 7 days ticket was 169 €. I paid more for a 3 days ticket in a 6 day festival this year, I could camp wherever I would (as the private camping were small and actually optional), I could go front to back on a stage without any major infrastructure barrier obstructing my way, I could listen to music of ANY kind (world stage i.e.), etc. etc. etc.

The concept seems to have strayed too much from its origin and the jism I get out of it so far is just the one of a Coachella with a touch of eastern Europe extravaganza. I hate Coachella.

Are we supposed to be able to do something with the passport?

You have all the basic info for every zone, map, timetable and the chekpoints where you are supposed to get stamps and when you collect them all you get a small gift 🌞

What happened with themed parties at the main stage? The only one I can see is a fucking sponsored Disney+ fan party smh 😒

In previous years we had a glowstick party, flag party, color party and all others, I am really disspointed 😶

They didn't have them in 2019 if memory serves me right.

They did actually, I was there in 2019, only on the last day there wasn't anything... the other days were banner/climate chnage party, rainbow party, glowstick party, friendship party (with friendship bracelets) and flag party 😕

Oh right. 

Must be the colour party they got rid of in 2019.

Does anyone know if there is another entrance for vip tickets? So you don’t have to wait to get to the festival.
 
I also think sziget is much smaller than previous editions. It’s more like 2014 and before. 

 

Smaller? Compared it to the other passports of previous years? To me it seems like the exact same looking at size. Why do you wonder it’s smaller?

If the free camping is really that small and the nature reserve is not camping, there are way less places to camp on the island. I might be wrong but also on the southern part of the island i thought it was further away from the mainstage where they had a special camping, now thats a nature reserve.

Btw, dont get it why they mention some stages/bars twice on the list with the map

    • Not sure what this means for 2027 but it looks like Holt Farm's website and email are both now inactive and unavailable.   It'll be a shame if they don't operate for 2027 as it was an excellent alternative to the other off-site offerings.   Fingers crossed they're just enjoying their downtime 🤞
    • Deftones, Blink, Muse?   Deftones as the next bump up makes all the sense, Blink as the "band that has never played before" and round out with Muse as its been a long time since they headlined and they have a new album coming which seems on the heavier side from the singles so far.   I could see Muse do their own tour to be fair, maybe MCR in their place? Could also see Deftones switched out for Slipknot/SOAD depending on who is about.
    • I have no issue with the Primavera crowd in most respects. They’re always friendly, respectful and no hint that there could be trouble at any point.   However…the talking is horrific here. The xx was pretty much ruined for me due to people having conversations with their mates the whole way through. Noticed it from all different nationalities across the weekend…English, Irish, Spanish etc. There seems to be no understanding of the nuances of when it’s okay to talk and when it isn’t. And obviously the sound being quiet at a lot of spots on the main stages exacerbates the issue. That alone has made me reconsider whether I will be coming back, it would probably take a lineup as good as this year (unlikely)
