Sziget: the Island of Freedom on the Danube

Sziget takes over Óbudai-sziget, an island in the Danube in Budapest, for a week each August — the “Island of Freedom,” one of Europe's biggest festivals, a self-contained city of music, art and round-the-clock camping.

Budapest's thermal baths, ruin bars and grand riverbanks surround it.

Below are the Budapest stays, restaurants and bars fans use for Sziget.

Fan tip: Camp on the island for the full experience, or stay in Budapest and dip into the thermal baths and ruin bars between sets.
