Sziget Festival 2026 is scheduled for 11–15 August 2026 in Budapest, Hungary, with the main programme running Tuesday to Saturday.[1][3][4] The festival says it is located on Óbuda Island in the heart of Budapest, at Május 9. park, Budapest, Hungary, 1033.[1][2]
The event is listed as a five-day festival, and official festival information notes that the party continues into Sunday morning, with camping opening from 11 August at 8:00 am until 16 August at 12:00 pm CET.[1][3] Several guides also describe 10 August 2026 as a separate pre-festival or “Sziget Icons” day, but that is distinct from the main five-day festival pass.[5][11][12]
Practical ticket information varies by guide. One source lists daily pre-festival bonus-day tickets from €62, main festival-day tickets at €105 plus a €7 handling fee, and a full five-day pass at €379 plus a €25 handling fee.[5] Another guide lists a 5-day ticket at €399 plus a €26 handling fee, a 3-day ticket at €279 plus a €18 handling fee, and a day ticket at €109 plus a €7 handling fee.[15]
Travellers planning an August trip should note that the core festival dates are consistently given as 11–15 August 2026, but arrival and camping timing differ depending on ticket type and whether they want to attend the optional 10 August programming.[1][5][6] The official site also mentions performers including Twenty One Pilots, Florence + The Machine, SOMBR and Lewis Capaldi, though line-ups can still change.[3][18]
