This year’s Sziget Festival is expected to break records
Thousands of people arrived to the Sziget Festival on Sunday, before Monday's first official (minus-first) day. The vast majority of the festival goers are coming from abroad, and there is a good chance that last year’s 415 thousand visitors record will be broken.
The 23rd Sziget Festival will be held between August 10 and 17. This year's biggest star is clearly the British pop star Robbie Williams, whose Monday evening's concert will be the most expensive event in the festival's history.
Performers will arrive from forty-seven countries. The biggest names include Florence and the Machine, Avicii, Ellie Goulding, the alt-J, Kings of Leon, Martin Garrix, Kasabian, Limp Bizkit, the Foals, the Marina and the Diamonds, the Gogol Bordello, the Maccabees and AWOLNATION. (MTI)
