In his latest vlog entry, Balázs visited the world-famous Sziget Festival, located in the heart of the Hungarian capital, which is currently in full swing.. The Island of Freedom, which opened last Wednesday runs until August 13th and tens of thousands of visitors arrived at the Hajógyári Island to listen to headliners such as Ed Sheeran, Foo Fighters, Twenty-One Pilots, Post Malone, Macklemore, Florence + the Machine and DJ Martin Garrix. Just like last year, Hungary Today also spent time on the Island of Freedom checking out the crazy outfits, enjoying the concerts – and we have also asked some foreigners at the festival about Hungary. Enjoy a small virtual tour on the Island of Freedom with us:
