The Sziget community was founded in 1993 to create a "temporary dream state" that could become a centre for the meeting of cultures in Europe, growing over the years to become one of the most popular and best-known Hungarian brands in the world today. Synonymous with cultural diversity, and now also Hungary’s biggest tourist attraction, Sziget is a true sucess story that has helped Budapest to cement its place on the world festival map.
This year, the festival brings its usual host of big names, including Billie Eilish, David Guetta, Florence + the Machine, Imagine Dragons, and Sam Fender, as well as a colourful selection of other fantastic activities and events.
