Budapest district
District III (Óbuda, Shipyard Island)
Shipyard Island is the largest-scale event ground in the country, where the statutory day limits become part of the plan.

What this means in District III
Óbuda's event traffic is dominated by the summer festival season on Shipyard Island. Its scale sets it apart from every other Budapest venue: not one day and not one crew, but weeks, across multiple shifts, with wristband entry and continuous rotation.
This is where the law becomes a planning question. Under casual employment the same worker may do at most five consecutive days, and fifteen in a month: a seven-day festival therefore has to be built with rotation from the outset rather than noticed on day six. Strike needs its own fresh crew, because the day's people have worked their hours by then.
Typical venues in the district
- Festival grounds on Shipyard Island
- The Aquincum Museum and archaeological site
- The Óbuda embankment and riverside venues
- Event spaces around Fő tér
When it's busy
Concentrated in the summer festival season; capacity has to be committed months ahead.
Common question
How do we plan a crew for a week-long festival?
With rotation, from the start. Five consecutive days is the maximum with the same employer under casual employment, so a seven-day event has to be split across two groups with the changeover built into the rota. Add a separate strike shift, which is what most people forget to plan.
