The Sziget Festival has received an award for the best line-up of the year at the European Festival Awards.
The renowned event, which took place in the Netherlands this year, is considered the pinnacle body for honoring festivals and is the so-called “Oscars” of the events world.
Upon receiving the award, Tamás Kádár, CEO at Sziget Cultural Management Ltd., said it was a huge surprise for them to be awarded again, and they are extremely happy that Sziget has been acknowledged for its unique, multi-colored musical line-up.
Sziget beat festival heavyweights Glastonbury, Roskilde, and Lollapalooza to the gong, and was voted on by members of the public.
