The Festival is always an international affair, with package winners flocking in from all over and paying punters willing to travel a moderate distance as well. We're pretty sure this is the furthest anyone has ever travelled on their own dime just to experience the delights of The Festival. So, welcome to Akash Mazumdar, who bought himself flights and a hotel room, and jetted all the way from the USA (East Coast) to Bratislava and is telling everyone who'll listen how absolutely thrilled he is to be playing his first The Festival Main Event.
Franke has of course taken him under his wing and now seems to be introducing him at length to every single player and member of staff. We hope that Akash manages to escape in time for the restart in five minutes' time - Akash if you're reading this, just say the word and we'll come rescue you - and enjoy your time here at The Festival in Bratislava!
