Xs Land Programs

Hungarian Down Foundation

Come and create together with the young artisans of the Down Foundation. With their help, you can make party decorations, paint your own pocket or T-shirt, or decorate a stone to take home as a keepsake. You can get a glitter tattoo from our lovely young people with Down syndrome, and we’ll paint your face too. Come color mandalas and relax with us—we’re waiting for you with open arms!

Talking Hands Cultural and Educational Association

Can you imagine a world without sound? Would you fall apart if you couldn’t hear your favorite singer’s voice? Well, we wouldn’t. Come and experience how the world can be complete even without sound.

Bliss Foundation

August 9-11.

Démosthenész National Association of People with Speech Disorders and Their Helpers

August 6-8.

This association supports young people and adults with speech impairments, as well as the professionals who help them.

Leisure Sports Association for the Visually Impaired

LÁSS – Feel the Sport!
LÁSS offers experience-based programs where sighted festivalgoers can try sports without using their vision in a playful way. Try blind football, blind table tennis, or blind boccia. Our goal is to bring the sports of people with visual impairments closer to festivalgoers and break down prejudices.

Hungarian Association of Speech Therapists (MLSZSZ) and Speak Up! Association

August 9-11.

Two civil organizations working on speech-related issues—MLSZSZ, representing speech therapists, and Speak Up!, representing people who stutter—have joined forces as equal partners. Together, they showcase the wide spectrum of speech disorders and therapies from both the professional and personal perspectives. What is life like with a speech disorder? What can be done? What are the potential positives?

Miss Spinner Motivational Foundation

We are a foundation focusing on confidence-building and integration of people with mobility impairments. We also run unique international programs, especially for girls in wheelchairs. This includes the Miss Spinner International Wheelchair Beauty Pageant. At Sziget, we’ll offer wheelchair repair, interactive wheelchair design, and other activities.

Budapest Association of People with Disabilities

Sziget residents can experience firsthand the challenges faced by people with mobility impairments in everyday life. Through various playful activities, they can explore the importance of accessibility, try out different life situations, and have direct conversations with young people with mobility impairments.

Never Give Up Foundation

Here you can try what it’s like to live with a disability—in a playful way! Wheelchairs, blindfolds, tricky tasks—you can experience what it feels like when your body works differently. It’s not about pity or fear—it’s about play, experience, and a little change of perspective. Come, explore, laugh, understand—because difference is not a burden, it’s a value!

Óbuda Rehabilitation and Employment Centre

Tarka-Barka Land
Let’s build the bridge of acceptance together! Get to know the world of people with intellectual disabilities in a playful, creative, and interactive way! We aim to break down prejudices through shared experiences and show how much unites us. Step onto the bridge that brings us all closer together.

Paraktív Integration Foundation

The Paraktív Foundation invites everyone in XS Land to try wheelchair streetball, table tennis, darts, arm wrestling, or fencing—all with the help of our para-athletes and Paralympians. Our goal is to break down barriers through the power of sport.

Rehab Critical Mass Foundation

RCM is a grassroots CIVIL initiative led by people with disabilities. It has never aimed for profit, but has a social mission: no matter what kind of disability we live with on this Earth, let’s join forces! Anyone can support this cause—whether from Hungary, abroad, or another planet—without any discrimination. The greatest support is when people with and without disabilities together create active change.

Accessibility Support for XS Land Visitors

Next to XS Land, you’ll find the Easy Access Camping, and XS Land staff are there to help Sziget citizens with accessible services if they have special needs or limited mobility.
