Accident at Sziget Festival: ambulance rushed to nearby hospital

An artist suffered an accident at the Sziget Festival’s Cirque du Sziget. An ambulance was called, which took him to a Budapest hospital.

The festival organisers told Telex that an ambulance car arrived in 10 minutes, providing professional help for the artist in trouble. They added that the artist felt better, and his group decided to hold their next performance despite the accident.

Interestingly, a similar accident happened two years ago at Sziget in the same circus tent. Then, the artist stood on a crane, which caught his leg, and he fell down.

Cirque du Sziget has 1,000 seats, hosting open-air and indoor shows.
