Manas Festival (Lengyeltóti, Hungary) 2027

Manas Festival returns to Manas Garden near Lengyeltóti, in the hills south of Lake Balaton, from 7 to 12 July 2027. The organisers have confirmed the dates on the official website and ticket sales are already open. Erro is the first act listed for 2027, with the rest of the programme still to be announced.

The festival runs on an 82 hectare site of forest, valleys and lakeside areas beside the Kék-tó lake, with a hostel, camping grounds and regenerating farmland. The organisers describe it as one of Hungary’s largest landscape regeneration projects, and the grounds also host other events through the year. The official channel has published aftermovies for the 2023, 2024 and 2025 editions.

Music is split across several areas. The Portal is the psytrance stage, powered by a Lambda Labs QX3 horn loaded sound system; the 2026 Portal bill included Electric Universe, Spacenoize, Liquid Soul, Protonica, Ticon and Faders. The Bowl runs on a hybrid Danley and Funktion-One rig, while the Field hosts acoustic concerts, electronic and fusion live acts and meditative sessions. Workshops, a Mandala area, a yoga terrace, a family programme and a food market fill the rest of the site, which sets Manas apart from a straight club weekend and places it among the more holistic music festival events in Central Europe.

For 2027 the team has promised more shade at the Portal, extra showers and toilets in the forest camping zones, misting gates at the Portal and Bowl, steadier water supply and more frequent road watering to keep dust down. Every ticket covers the full festival, camping and parking for a car or camper van. There are no VIP or day tickets, and prices run from €159 for Early Bird to €219 for Phase III, with a €249 Supporter ticket. An official shuttle runs from Budapest Airport and Vienna Hauptbahnhof.
