Festival site

MasterCard Balaton Sound is situated in Zamárdi, just one hour from Budapest. Several options are available to get to the festival site as a direct shuttle service leaving from the airport or downtown Budapest. Those who are more adventurous can choose the ride sharing option. Accommodation possibilities are also available: basic camping site is located near the event, so those bringing their tents can enjoy nice services and a great area to have a little sleep. While the VIP Camping is already sold out, premium offers are still available on the festival site itself: Flexotel offers cabins for 2 and the #festivalhotel powered by Telekom is a also a great way to have a little rest. Services as guarded lockers, camping set, camping accessories can be still purchased in the webshop. In addition, visitors can buy a portable phone charger in advance, so their phones can keep up with the party and they can be social all day and keep the memories forever. All these items are available in the MasterCard Balaton Sound webshop.

Since the last event the organizing crew started a big project to develop the core qualities of the festival area. Thanks to this the area became a lot more efficient in terms of water management, so even in case of a rainy day the water finds an easier way out, just to make sure that fans stay dry and happy. The area is now covered by a new, more resistant type of grass, so it stays green longer. The roads at the area have also been reconstructed, so logistically it’s easier to run the event. All this means that the festival can take place on a slightly more natural area, using less provisional infrastructure, as it needs less protection. In short: greener, nicer, more fun!
