Sziget has been over for two weeks now, but your Sziget accounts keep on coming to Szigetnews.com. Keep them coming through the contact section, or via comment.
Here’s the latest we received, from Szigetnews friend Kevin:
Sziget was good as always, but it was better the last couple of years… Prices
have gone up extremely over the last two years. Line-up was a nice 90ies-feel
line-up, but we’re living 10 years later…
Two friends of mine were robbed. Both were sleepinh in there tents when people
came into their tents to get stuff out! That’s not your own fault!
Don’t know if I’ll go again. Maybe I’ll try the EXIT-festival next
year… But it’s a hard choice to make. Main reason to go to Sziget is the
massive possibilities to chill in tons of places!

Our reader szigetist has shared his very enthusiastic memories with us. Here they are.
“Great festival, nice people, affordable food and drinks, great weather, uninspiring line-up on the main stage, but the rest was great (parov stelar, vitalic, justice,…) and party 24/7, all in all the best festival i’ve ever been to!!!”

Looks like the festival wasn’t that great for some of our readers. Here’s Niall Cleary’s opinion:
” what a load of rubbish!!!pendulum and carl cox cancelling, justice playin at 12 pm, campsites un-safe and the mood at this years festival was nothing on previous years..yes maiden rocked and REM surprised but seriously the organizers have to take a long hard look at improving next years line-up. apparently 5 days meant a stronger line-up…not convinced at all…wont be telling any stories of praise upon returning home”
Our reader gianpiero wants the festival to return to its usual 7-day format, and also wants “a better programme”
