Sziget Festival eyes 22.5 million euros revenue in 2017
Budapest, May 12 (MTI) – Budapest’s Sziget Festival is expected to generate revenue of around 7 billion forints (EUR 22.5m) this year and a 10 percent profit, Festival CEO Tamás Kádár told Friday’s issue of business daily Világgazdaság.
The lion’s share of the revenue, 85 percent, is expected to be generated from ticket sales, while sponsorship is set to account for 10 percent. State support makes up less than 1 percent of revenue, the paper said.
