Nothing examplifies this better than the fact that both international and Hungarian ticket offices have their presale Sziget tickets sold out, though the ammount of tickets was twice as much as in 2004.
Fortunately, here is no reason to worry for those who could not get their weeklies, since the festival can be entered with daily tickets as well.
Dailies, of which the Sziget Sziget Festival gives out fourty thousand pieces a day, can be bought on the spot for 20,-
The 2005 line-up of the event shows hard rocking acts like Ignite, Opeth and Turbonegro along with percussion acts like Tumba y Quema and Ritmo 2003, ethnodub/world like Dubioza Kolektiv, Oi Va Voi and Zap Mama, jazz ensembles like ron Romhnyi trio, New Cool Collective and Eichinger Quartet, not to mention the DJs, drum workshops, street theatre acts, and blues acts.
