Strand Festival – The best way to finish the summer

Change language:
The MOL Nagyon Balaton (Much Balaton) programme series closes this summer with the 5th Strand Festival held in its usual spot in Zamárdi between the 23rd and 26th of August. Among others, the organisers will welcome visitors with concerts, open-air cinema, camp fire, lectures, an amusement park and even more. Get ready for the rhythm of Lake Balaton 😉
Fortunately more and more people realise that Lake Balaton is a truly versatile summer destination. You can choose from all types of holidays: you can opt for sporty, relaxing, sightseeing, gastronomic experiences, or combine all of these and visit a festival like Strand, where you can relax in the morning, enjoy different activities in the afternoon and party at night.

The first performer announced by the organisers was John Newman, which was quite a strong start. The Hungarian audience loves the unique voiced singer, who became famous with Rudimental and their song Feel the Love, to then conquer top lists with his ultimate hit song, Love Me Again.
But the organisers didn’t stop there: during the Advent season they announced further concerts by Bastille, Icona Pop, Parov Stelar and Redfoo. Later, You Me at Six and their guitar-centric music was added to the list along with the popular Norwegian DJ-producer, Alan Walker, the always energetic Wilkinson, the many-sided Alle Farben, and the representative of the Swedish house style, Vigiland.
To complete the line-up of the joint festival of Petőfi Radio and VOLT Productions, the most popular Hungarian bands and performers will also entertain the visitors of Strand.








Hey! Are there any non-hungarians at the festival? And if so in what kind of proportions?
