If you can, ride a bike or scooter to the Festival, or bring it with you on the train/car, maybe rent one and be free as a bird in Budapest – this is the easiest and, by the way, the greenest way to get to us and to the bike storage at the K-bridge you can even lock it safely (bicycles and scooters are not allowed in the festival area). You can reach the K Bridge via EUROVELO 6 route. If you are transporting the bicycle by HÉV, buy a single ticket for it and be sure to get off at Filatorigat, because this year the H-híd is closed to pedestrian and bicycle traffic. If you are drunk, please do not cycle!
