Mark your calendars, Szitizens! ? Sziget Festival 2027 is ON from 10–14 August – Tuesday to Saturday (yeah, the party goes ‘til Sunday morning). Five unforgettable days, one perfect week. Fly in, vibe hard, dance through Saturday, and be back in your own bed by Sunday – ready for that chill, recovery or working mode on Monday.

Please make sure you buy tickets from our webshop, travel and hotel packages (incl. a 6-day Pass) at Festival Travel’s website or at the Main Entrance (during opening hours) during the festival, otherwise we cannot guarantee the validity of your ticket.

A handling fee is charged in addition to the current ticket price when purchasing your ticket online (in the webshop). This is an administration fee for online ticket purchases, the amount of which you can find out in our webshop. You can buy your tickets at the Sziget on-site ticket offices (during opening hours), in which case this administration fee will not be charged.

However, it is important to note that the on-site ticket price (the on-site gate price) may be higher than the online ticket price, so we recommend that you buy your ticket from our webshop. This will not only save you money, but also can avoid a situation where there are no tickets available (on a sold out day).

We accept the following cards: MasterCard, Maestro, Visa, Visa Electron.
You can pay by Revolut & Google Pay (by OTP Simple – please choose Pay with Debit Card or Credit Card and then click on Google Pay option).

Please note that Google Pay is not accepted in case of a payment plan.

In case the online purchase was declined first make sure that your card is supported for online transactions or online purchase is not prohibited by the card provider or you have the sufficient amount for the transaction and there is no purchase limit or your credit card has not expired. You can also try the following steps: please retry the payment process and double-check the data you have entered! Typos can happen. In case of a transaction failure, we recommend to try using an alternative credit card. Alternatively you can try to purchase your ticket from one of our official ticketing partners. Should the transaction continue to fail you might want to get in touch with your credit card company. They will need the following data (you can find them in the error message): transaction ID number & 3-digit error code.

The amount charged to the payment chip on site (at a top-up point or a vending machine) can only be used during the duration of Sziget 2026, in the commercial units operating at the event venues. In the case of purchasing multiple day tickets, you will receive a different, new wristband and a payment chip for each day ticket. If your wristband for the first day you top up money, you can use it for the entire duration of the festival. The validity of the payment chip is: August 16, 2026, 12:00 p.m.

The remaining balance of the wristband charged on the spot for any day ticket or pass must therefore be redeemed no later than the time specified above, otherwise the balance remaining on it will be lost.
Did you top up your balance through a festival account? In this case, we will automatically transfer it back to you within 30 days, after deducting a refund fee of HUF 800, to the bank card used for the top-up. Please top up your balance from a card that is valid for 60 days after the festival.

1. After selecting the ‘I have a ticket’ option, you will need the ID under the QR or barcode on your ticket. After that, you click on ‘Submit’, and you have to choose ‘Topup ticket’ from the buttons. You can choose the amount of the top-up, and you can also enter a unique amount. The top-up fee is HUF 700 in all cases.
   When choosing the payment method, you should use card registration payment, because in this case you do not have to enter your data again later. If you choose the option without card registration, you have to enter your card details every time you want to top-up money.
2. The ‘I have a wristband’ option is useful in the following two cases: you are not entered at the festival area yet, but you have already redeemed your ticket for a wristband, or you are already inside the festival area, but you want to comfortably and online load money into your wristband.
   This option requires the wristband number and the PIN code. The PIN code is the last 4 characters of the ID below the QR code or barcode of your ticket. After the ‘Add wristband’ step, you have to click on the wristband itself. From there, the top-up process is the same as for the first option.
   You can easily check your payments and refund information at any time!

Your PIN code is the code you have to use to verify your wristband. You will get this code at the entrance on a receipt. Or you can use the last 4 characters of your ticket ID as your PIN. If you don’t have any of these, just visit any ticket or Festipay helpdesk so we can help you!
