La Fura dels Baus at Sziget Sziget Festival is one of the most colourful events on the European festival circuit, which – beside the great variety of musical programmes – tends to offer the cream of many other cultural genres as well. This year’s main attraction is a special performance composed exclusively for Sziget Festival by one of the world’s most prestigious spectacle theatre troupes with a huge fanbase (12-13-14-15-16th August).
Lilly Allen performing live at Sziget Get ready for our freshest and hottest confirmation: chart-topper tomboy, Lily Allen, having just released her second album, is performing live at Sziget Main Stage. Also on the bill this year, in an earlier afternoon slot at Main Stage is another lady, Balkani r’n'b Queen Miss Platnum.
Sziget – the most colourful, biggest and cheapest festival in Central Europe During this time of global financial crisis value for money becomes a higher priority. We have one foolproof tip for avid fans of music and youth culture: it will definitely be worth their while to come to Budapest from the 12th to the 17th of August when the Sziget Festival (which includes two warm-up days) will be welcoming visitors from across Europe.
