00:0050 stages and around 1,000 performances await visitors at Sziget 2025 in Budapest, Hungary,

00:09as the festival readies to dive into its 31st edition.

00:15Festival director Tamás Kadar says Sziget, Hungary's biggest event of the year will bring several new innovations.

00:30The festival includes making a lot of fun things such as an art,

00:36the world is such a big world, the decoration of these of us and our lives are very high.

00:48These are the places where the buildings are used, the mountains were used, the big mountains were used,

00:54so I think this is a huge deal from the point of view of Sziget.

00:57While there are plenty of cultural and civic activities alongside the music, most people

01:04come for the tunes and especially to catch the acts on the main stage.

01:09Most festival-goers were drawn to the big names, mainstream performers, though many

01:14were also tempted by the electronic line-up when buying their tickets.

01:19Charlie XCX and Chapel Roan and Charlie XCX and also FK Twigs and Sefdalis and Brutalis.

01:29We have more of them, but Charlie was the one who made us come here.

01:34I'm excited most for Charlie, XCX and definitely Chapel Roan.

01:40Anything in Colosseum honestly.

01:42Armin van Buuren, Poge Malone, the big ones.

01:46Shawn Mendes.

01:47As the Siget has been rearranged, new green spaces have been left untouched, allowing

01:55festival-goers to camp out in even more places.

01:59Organizers say the reimagined Siget is a new way to get lost, which they say is a true

02:05festival experience.

02:07Tavaly a K-hídon több mint 400 ezer ember sétált át, hogy a Sigeten fesztiválozzon.

02:13Idénre a szervezők még több vendéget várnak.
