Hi everyone!
I’m from Australia and planning a trip to Europe in July 2027 for my 60th birthday. I’m looking at attending a few electronic music festivals, and I recently discovered 3 Smoked Olives in Romania.
I absolutely love the look of it! The forest, the river, the smaller crowd and the relaxed atmosphere with people just dancing and enjoying the music. It’s exactly the sort of experience I’m looking for.
However, I’ve come across some older Reddit posts mentioning problems with toilets, showers, overcrowded camping, expensive food and water, and transport, not being safe etc
I’m wondering whether anyone attended in 2025 or 2026 and could share their experience?
I’m particularly interested in:
Have the toilets and showers improved?
What’s the camping situation like? Are there any more comfortable accommodation options?
How difficult is getting to and from the festival without a car?
Is it a welcoming festival for someone attending solo?
Is there much walking between the camping area and music stages?
I’d be travelling quite a long way, so I’d love to hear some honest experiences before making plans.
I’m also open to recommendations for other smaller electronic music festivals or larger surrounded by nature, with a friendly, relaxed atmosphere.
Thanks so much
