“We tried to compile the music line-up of this year’s Heineken Balaton Sound in such a way as to condense the wide range of the electronic music universe into the four days of the festival. “Sound is now a multi-style party festival where electronic music lovers can choose from the selection as they wish, discovering new favorites and musical trends at every point of the festival beach,” Anna Filutás, project manager of Heineken Balaton Sound, began announcing the full line-up.
The main organizer of the festival stated that one of the big highlights of this year is the extension of the Heineken Main Stage’s show time, “from the second day onwards, the programs will last here until 3 am, and on Sunday dawn, this venue will say goodbye to the festival-goers with a huge End Show courtesy of the world-famous Dutch team Q-Dance”.
The location of Sound will also be transformed, the main entrance will be moved to a new location, and due to the great preliminary interest, the guest area of the festival will also be transformed.
