Gin and Tonic. These are just a few of our favorites that always help us to start the weekend in a really good mood. You pay for one and get two, while the Bladerunnaz DJs play their favorite liquid funk and drum-and-bass records. A soft warmup for what is coming in the forthcoming two days and three nights. Sunshine, chill times, good music, good people – all on the Danube.Budapest Rooftop Cinema Presents: Free Entry - Premiere Screening @ Corvintető, 21:00.
The official premiere of the unofficial Sziget movie: Free Entry is about two girls who get lost in the island of freedom. Lots of concerts, lots of familiar faces, lots of excitement.

Free Entry follows a day in the life of two teenagers: Betti (Pusztai Luca) and V (Barta Ágnes). They make it to the Sziget Festival, and the attractive pair soon finds out that this day is not only about bands like Quimby, Die Antwoord, Brains, Dorothy's Legs, or Superbutt, but also about boys. A rivalry begins and it soon turns out that this is not only fun and games. Before and after the film, Deutsch Gábor will play a garage/deep house set.Eatbrain Night: Telekinesis, SKC, Sickboy, Jade @ A38 Ship, 22:00.
This show won't go down easy: the most brutal and kickin' drum 'n' bass DJs and producers will rip your head off, testing the the ship's sound system.

If you haven't been to an Eatbrain Night, then we'll tell you what to expect: one of Hungary's most successful drum 'n' bass DJ's, Jade, also well-known in other countries, collects the young, talented European characters who will form the scene in the upcoming years. He will release their music and invite them to Budapest so he can introduce them to you in a party that will test the ship's soundsystem and the solidness of the walls. Total madness!SaturdayNOMURI PICNIC 2.0 @ Vituki Beach, 14:00.
Beach volleyball, ice-cold coolers and cocktails, sexy dance music, and tasty treats all day and all of the night! Did we say the party will take place at a private beach, where only guests can attend? (Yep, no families and no volume limits.)

Altough we love clubbing, during summer we prefer the places where we can jump into a pool to cool ourselves down a bit. The owners of Hotel Nomuri share the love for beaches, ice-cold cocktails, and wet vibes, so they've decided to "transport" the whole club to a place where good music meets swimming pools and grilled goods come with a lemonade. There will be no volume limit or anything that would spoil the fun, so no excuses this time! DJs: Blatti, Manek, Skiz, Daniel Page, B.A.N, Marco Grandi, Maple Dip, Stereostrip, Vikipop.Bladerunnaz - AHOY!

@ Zsófia Ship, 15:00.

Open air daytime electronica dance party – on a boat! With Bladerunnaz DJs. Beautiful panoramas, sunshine, cocktails, good vibes – what else can you ask for?

If you feel like there are not enough red beat cells flowing in your veins, or you just want to enjoy the fresh breeze over the Danube, here is your program for the weekend. Bladerunnaz DJs will spin the best kind of drum 'n' bass vinyls all along the fantastic voyage. What makes this night even more special is that Jade will play a special old-school set – apart from him, the lineup includes IAN Autorun, Markov, Mentalien, and DJ Ren.Pannonia Allstars Ska Orchestra @ Kobuci Kert, 19:00.
Rudeboys are back in town. It's the best Hungarian ska band, known for their energetic concerts and authentic take on roots reggae and dancehall.

Some say it's hard to distinguish PASO's music from the Jamaican originals, but those who give the tracks more careful consideration will ulitmately realize that this music is an exquisite blend of uptempo skanks, bedrock reggae riddims, two-tone tunes, and deep dub echoes, all merged with jazzy grooves and touches of the joyfullyrealistic Eastern European musical heritage. This variety comes from the musicians' diverse roots – they come from different scenes in the Hungarian underground, ranging from hard-core to big bands.The Great Gatsby Show @ Orfeum, 21:00.
The movie based on Fitzgerald's opus – taking place in the thrilling, wild, and filthily decadent times of the 1920s – has inspired the Orfeum, too. The Great Gatsby is about to throw a hot party in this unique Pest nightclub.

Spectacular dances, sexy costumes, and excellent singers guarantee that everyone feels at home in Gatsby’s secret world on this night. All songs guide us through the smoky-yet-alluring era. “One night where everything is allowed…” Besides solo performances and duets by Oliver Berkes, Helen Gondi, and Zsofi Kallai-Kiss, the stage is owned by the dancers of the Orfeum (Istvan Makar, Wanda Olter, Nikolett Szabo, and Gábor Zsiros) choreographed by Aniko Szabo and Lajos Turi.

A unique ambience, a unique show, an unmissable experience.SundayWNDRBND Live - Volume 2 @ wndrlnd, 21:00.
Lana Del Rey meets "Eye Of The Tiger"? Amy Winehouse meets "Get Lucky"? Rude Boy meets Michael Jackson? WNDRLND's very own bootleg band is back for another round, mixing everything with everything.

From Lady Gaga to James Brown: dirty funk, R&B, pop, soul, hip-hop, and everything in between. The five members come from different musical backgrounds: Yank is a DJ and teacher, the man behind iamyank; Stahl Barbi is a singer who grew up listening to soul, jazz, and R&B; G. Szabó Hunor also plays in the great retro-beat-soul band The Qualitons (but instead of playing guitar, he is the drummer here); BenceBécsy is a grooving blues guitarist; and TomiHeilig plays bass guitar. When they are together, they put their influences together and explode!Scandinavian Camera @ Tabán Kinotéka, 14:00.
A new Scandinavian film will be screened at Tabán every day. Different directors, different years, different styles.

Which films can you catch, you ask?

In Order of Disappearance, directed by Hans Petter Moland. Nymphomaniac, directed by the almighty Lars Von Trier, starring Charlotte Gainsbourg, Shia LaBeouf and Stellan Skarsgård. Apart from the actors and the director: the title says it all. Lukas Moodysson's We Are The Best! is a great option if you want to transport yourself back to your anachro-punk teenage years. Another option is Felix Herngren's award-winning The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared and Thomas Vinterberg's Jagten, staring Mads Mikkelsen. Is there anything else, you ask? Yes:

King of Devil's Island and The Keeper of Lost Causes.
