Have you ever wondered what is it like to party as a young person with disabilities at the SZIGET Festival in Budapest, Hungary?

This year, the self-advocate group of the Never Give Up Foundation returned to the XS Land area of the SZIGET Festival. Not only were they enthusiastic participants, but they also played an active role in shaping a festival experience that was inclusive, accessible, and barrier-free for all.

The video is filmed in the spirit of "Nothing about us without us" and aims to communicate that, sometimes, a new perspective changes everything.
