Electric Castle 2026 opens today at Bánffy Castle in Bonchida. This year's programme features more than two hundred acts, with headliners including Twenty One Pilots and The Cure.

The official mobile app handles programme planning, finding venues and real-time updates in a single interface. The festival is entirely cashless: visitors pay using the balance loaded onto their wristband.

The system can speed up service and provide more accurate sales data, but it also needs to remain reliable under heavy load or in the event of internet outages.

The event at Bánffy Castle runs on an app, real-time information and wristband payments.
