We are almost at a loss for words to describe the Sziget Festival, which recently concluded in Budapest, Hungary. The week-long musical extravaganza not only witnessed genre-bending performances, but also offered fringe benefits such as spellbinding dance acts, theatres gigs and art installations for people to enjoy.

You know there are probably only a handful of places in the world where you can ride, and flaunt your hippo ride with unabashed aplomb. (Image courtesy: Szigetfestival/MózsiGábor)

We told you, didn’t we, that Sziget is not just for music fanatics?
