Event and location
Festival staff in Budapest
Városliget, the riverbank and the big arenas mean this is where multi-day, multi-shift events concentrate, with the gate-opening peak and the strike each needing their own crew.
Headcount rule of thumb
Two per gate for entry; for wristbanding, one person per 200 visitors of peak hourly footfall.

What to know about Budapest
Budapest is our base, where our pool is widest and our response time shortest.
Budapest is where we work most: exhibitions at Hungexpo, conferences in downtown hotels, galas in the Castle District, festivals in City Park and along the Danube. That means our teams know the venues, the vehicle access rules and which gate to actually walk through.
In the capital we cast from a pool of several thousand, so we can staff urgent requests and don't have to compromise on selection even for large headcounts.
