According to Károly Gerendai's initial assessment, Sziget closed with 350,000–360,000 visitors instead of the targeted 400,000. The financial result may be weaker than originally planned.
A late sales start, the strengthening of the forint and weather conditions may all have played a role, but the festival will definitely continue in 2027.
