Letter to our rebel aristocracy

Royals. They always create a bit of a buzz.

And right now, the buzz is all around the fab Teleki Castle as we’re putting together many of the most exciting, beautiful, innovative and inspiring shows, experiences and people you can find at a festival.

Think Music, think Pop-Up fashion shows, think the only international competition for outdoor art installations, think the only baroque castle with a je-ne-sais-quoi twist and think dusk-till-dawn dancing to the live sound of glorious international artists.

 

We’ll make sure to spice things up with good music, good food and mind entertainment.

Also featured on the menu is glamping, a forest library and a serenity meadow, a designer’s bazaar, a lounge and a cinema under the stars, theatre, art, all worthy of some royal rebels as yourselves.

But if all that’s not enough to quench your insatiable thirst for everything artsy-musicy-fancy, maybe this will: we have a dress code.

 

And that is: NEW FUNKY ROYALS

 

So, at this stage, one might pose a simple but very elementary question: What to wear?

Fret not, as we are here to help.

 

Put on an outfit that says Royal, Chic and OMG. Don’t be afraid to mix & un-match as many elements as you want. Like crowns and gowns with sneakers and overalls if that’s your thing. Or a big royal wig with a royal collar and a funky pair of animal prints? Yes please. The AWAKE Royal Garden opens its gates for all the ones who dare, so slip on your weirdest royal ensemble and head to the party, darlings.

 

Just remember to explore the grounds, the gardens and the big crowd of new bred royals. Make sure you applause both your apparel and the country’s oldest sycamores and ginkgo-biloba trees with loads of insta-friendly poses before the night steals all the light.

 

Yes, you can dress to impress, yes, this festival is one of a kind and, yes, you’re going to want to dance ’til dawn every single night.

For nothing quite energises one like a social buffet of everything amazing topped up with your best royal outfit, we can’t wait for you to join and explore the very best that an alternative royal court has to offer.

 

All the love from your favourite court.

 

Stay tuned, royal misfits!
