“The Sziget Community has existed for 25 years to create a temporary ‘dream state’ for a week that has become Europe’s center for cultural encounters. The message of the Love Revolution is confirmation of the core values that Sziget has represented for over a quarter of a century,” says Tamás Kádár, CEO of Sziget. The festival statement also says that Sziget believes in embracing diversity, respecting human dignity and looking out for each other. These issues will be presented at Sziget, the self-styled Island of Freedom, in a variety of forms during the seven-day music and arts festival.
Celebrating 25 years of the Sziget Festival, a freshly released aftermovie presents the highlights of the week-long party series that rocked the Hungarian capital in the summer of 2017. If you were among the revelers, now you can relive many of the festival’s unforgettable moments. Those who weren’t will be immersed in the Sziget vibe. This dynamic mini-movie shows festival crowds arriving in Budapest and flocking up to Óbuda Island through Sziget's iconic K-Bridge entrance, frolicking in the craziest costumes, bouncing around in front of the prominent acts on the main stage, and chilling amid the groovy paraphernalia.
Cameras also soar over Budapest to feature symbolic city scenes, such as the iconic Danube bridges, St. Stephen’s Basilica, the Liberation Monument and the Budapest Eye spinning around on Erzsébet Square in the city center. The video concludes with festivalgoers sharing thoughts on Sziget that for some means freedom, possibilities, and equality, while for others it’s future, adrenaline, new beginnings and peace.
