Sziget’s TicketSwap Colosseum returns this year with an enhanced design that supports the sound and lighting technology. The venue is nine metres high with a 3,000 person capacity, described as a “modern amphitheatre built with innovative sustainable materials that are mostly recycled, repurposed or recyclable”.
The Samsung Party Arena, meanwhile, is a 10,000 capacity tent with visual effects and a 360 sound set up, where the likes of Diplo, Tale Of Us, Adam Beyer, Macky Gee and more will headline.
Sziget Festival 2022 was headlined by Kings Of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, Dua Lipa, Justin Bieber and Tame Impala. Reviewing the event, NME praised the “incredible array of theatre, dance, discussion, art, comedy and music”.
“Sziget — the eye-popping wonderland of music and art set on an island in the middle of the Danube in Budapest — is where ‘guys who like to party’ are forced to seriously up their party game in order to to keep up.”
