On August 19–20, the Műegyetem rakpart will transform into a world-class electronic music venue, where the contemporary electronic music scene meets Budapest's iconic Danube panorama.
The main stage, built especially for this event, will welcome internationally acclaimed world stars such as Siberian-born Nina Kraviz, a true electro legend, and Christian Löffler, who balances the borderlands of ambient, techno, and house. Alongside the international stars, we'll also get to hear iconic figures of the Hungarian electronic music scene, including Sikztah and Tolo + Falcao, the duo behind the LavaLava event series. The performances are made even more special and spectacular by innovative LED installations and lighting technology, further enhancing the festive party atmosphere. The two-day Electro Embankment music programme brings a fresh sound to the August 20 celebrations, showing that our traditions can also be embraced through the world of younger generations.

Accessibility
The Műegyetem embankment is a flat, quayside area, so it is easy to navigate with a wheelchair or other mobility aid. The area is accessible from Szent Gellért tér (Szent Gellért Square), where a lift is available to the M4 metro line, and low-floor trams also stop nearby. A separate area is designated in front of the stage for visitors with reduced mobility, and accessible restrooms are also available.
