Sziget first began in 1994 under the name Eurowoodstock and played host to The Birds, Jefferson Starship and Jethro Tull. It has grown hugely in the years since, and in 2013 had the likes of Blur, David Guetta, Empire Of The Sun, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Tame Impala and Biffy Clyro on the line-up.
