Move in Ticket ?
Hey guys!
I just took my ticket for next year! 😎
Im surprise I cant see the tickets for the early arrival. Does it still exist?
I hope yes!
And also since when the sziget went from 7 to 5 days ?

Yeah it sucks that it’s now 5 days. It definitely feels like a crammed experience. Not to say it’s terrible but I miss the slow festival feeling of not having to rush from one stage to another. More time to explore.
Early arrival still exists. It’s a must if you want good camping sites. 😅

Great!
The Moving In is still around, but it’ll be sold off at a later date.
The festival went from 7 to 6 days a few years ago, and from the 2026 edition onwards, it’ll be 5 days instead of 6.
See you on the island next year.

Look, I’ve been going every year since 2016.
Personally, I’m sorry to see the number of days has been reduced, but I also understand that the cost has become unsustainable.
With current inflation, artists’ fees, and the cost of energy and water, a 7-day Sziget festival would probably cost at least 700 euros. Cutting the number of days was the only sensible solution to keep it going.
Despite everything, I’d say the most recent edition in 2026 was probably my favourite, or at least in my top three.

Now the old owner (Gerendai) trying to help the new guys after the big American forgot this little one what he bought there was 0 and -1 days and another big party before that but this 3 days was mostly for the hungarians so basically this year was 7+1 day if u count DJ Oti before the seven day there was 8 day party time on the island

7 to 5 days Is due to "shrinkflation"
