econet.hu noted that the "Music Against Racism" programme series on August 11 was loss-making and would reduce the festival's overall profits slightly.
Attendance at the festival reached 390,000, a new record.
All of the summer music festivals Sziget organises -- T-Home Gyerek Sziget, Volt Fesztival, Balaton Sound, Felsziget Fesztival, Zene a Rasszizmus ellen and Sziget Fesztival -- generated combined profits of HUF 350m-400m. The Volt and Balaton Sound festivals accounted for about half of profits.
