There are plenty of food courts offering a wide variety of options (see them all listed here or in the mobile app interactive map by clicking on the food court). High-end catering can be found in the VIP areas and at ZAM! Balaton, where Brunch is served too. Check the festival map to see where these food courts or VIP venues are.

We’re a cashless festival, so please bring a contactless card with you or check how easy it is to top-up your balance to your wristband, or pre-top-up before the festival to your ticket in your festival account. All necessary info is listed here.

Gorgeous reusable cups are at the bars waiting for you to fill with whatever you’d like to.

Take max 2 cups at a time and only unharmed and empty 0,33l and 0,5l cups are in the game. Shot cups are excluded.
