Recommended routes to get to the Sziget Festival
The festival area is easy to reach with local train (HÉV) departing from Batthyány tér in Budapest. You have to get off the train at the stop Filatorigát. During the days of the festival trains run on a more frequent schedule inside Budapest in the morning and evening hours (at the weekend in the afternoons also) and there are night trains as well.
Please note that the only night line stopping at Batthyány tér is the hourly running 921. Those who are about to go downtown at night, we suggest changing to night line 906, 923 or 931 at Margit híd (Margit Bridge); towards Móricz Zsigmond körtér please change to night line 960. Towards Zugló (district XIV) and Ferencváros (district IX) please change to night line 901 at Szentlélek tér (Árpád Bridge).
