You might want to stick around though... MEALS: + Breakfast Meals Your included meals are detailed in the 'Included Essentials' section of this document. Breakfasts (usually continental breakfasts) are included every day, except on the first morning of your trip. A typical continental breakfast may consist of cereals with milk or yogurt, bread, croissants, cold meats, and cheese – with fruit juice, tea or coffee to drink. It is rare to get a hot breakfast in continental Europe, though on some occasions some hot food may be available. Included meals will be provided at local restaurants and the accommodations in which we stay. In most cases, table water is provided with meals. If you wish to purchase additional drinks, you can do so at your own expense. If you have any dietary requirements, we’ll make every effort to cater to your needs – as long as you advise your travel agent or Customer Service Consultant when you book. You can also make a note of dietary requirements in the Topdeck app when you check-in. Please note: Although we’ll do everything in our power to cater to your needs, we cannot guarantee this will be possible in every restaurant we visit. We also cannot cater to tastes or dislikes, as most of our included evening meals feature a set menu. Tipping NO TIP NECESSARY Your Topdeck Trip Leaders and Drivers never expect tips, and they won’t ask for any either. We also know how much tipping can cost you. So go ahead – spoil yourself with the money you save traveling with us (just don’t forget Mum’s souvenir). Topdeck Travel App Our app is available to download before you travel. With a range of cool features including a currency converter, budget planner, check-in tool and group chat, it’ll help you plan your trip like a pro. Think of it as your very own Topdeck Trip Leader in the palm of your hand. TRIP GROUP CHAT Connect with your fellow Topdeckers before you depart and begin your magical friendship in the flash of a winking face emoji. ITINERARY VIEWER Get the lowdown on where you’ll be going and what activities you’ll be doing on each day of your trip with this handy little tool. CHECK-IN Plug in all your vital deets and we’ll keep them safe for when you really need them. Making your life easier, one swipe at a time. BUDGET TRACKER Keep an eye on your holiday spending, leaving you with more FUN-ds to play with. Think: elaborate Spanish feasts (not questionable supermarket sandwiches). MAPS Navigate your way to meeting points and lesser-known local gems using pins dropped by your Trip Leader, seek out your own bucket list sites and take to the streets like a pro. Once the trip is over, you’ll need the app to give us feedback about your trip experience. We love to hear what you thought about your trip, as it helps to give us an idea of the things we’re doing well and the things we could be doing better. PLEASE NOTE: The Topdeck Travel App should only be downloaded once you have booked your trip. You will not be able to log in unless you have a Topdeck booking reference number. GET IT FOR IPHONE GET IT FOR ANDROID Passenger safety NIGHTS OUT One of the best parts of travelling is experiencing the nightlife and entertainment each city has to offer. However, amidst the fun and excitement, it’s important to be aware of your surroundings and personal safety as well. Before you hit the road with us, be sure to familiarise yourself with the following safety information. When you’re on a night out, remember to avoid walking alone, particularly through deserted areas like beaches and back streets. Always stick together, take a registered taxi where possible, and keep a note of your accommodation details so you can find your way back to your fellow Topdeckers if you become separated. It’s also a good idea to get your Topdeck trip mates’ mobile numbers in case you need to get hold of them while out and about. In some countries, alcoholic measures can be considerably larger than what you may be used to.

    The Rise of International Festivals and the example (Case Study) of Sziget DEZSŐ DÉR PhD, assoc. prof, Budapest Metropolitan University E-mail: [email protected] ÁRPÁD PAPP-VÁRY PhD, dean, college professor, Budapest Metropolitan University E-mail: [email protected] ALEXANDRE ÁRPÁD SZIGETHY student, commerce and marketing bachelor program, Budapest Metropolitan University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract (The Rise of International Festivals and the Example (Case Study) of Sziget) The touristic importance of music festivals is increasing throughout Europe. More than a thousand festivals of international interest exist on the continent, and their creative concepts are also increasingly important. Only events with a program including unique elements of international interest can stand out from the crowd. In addition to the creative concept, determinant factors include accommodation options, accessibility, price level, and country/city image. The organizational background of these events is also important: programming, marketing, sponsorships, technological/technical and fi nancial divisions all play an important role in the international character of a festival. What is more, internationalism also needs to appear in the corporate structure. The authors address this topic not only through an analysis of international literature, but also through a case study based on an in- depth interview research performed with the management of the Sziget Festival. The aim of the study is to show music festival organisers and future festival organizers how to build and operate an international festival and enrich the relevant literature, creating a solid theoretical base. Keywords music festival; international communication; festival tourism; Sziget Festival Rezumat (Creșterea popularităţii festivalurilor internaţionale. Studiu de caz: Festivalul Sziget) Importanţa turistică a festivalurilor muzicale este în creștere în toată Europa.
