Abstract: The Annual Campus Festival is among the summer music festivals in Hungary which targets higher education students and attracts a large number of participants. The organisers of the festival pay special attention to enhancing visitors’ interest in sport and music events. The Campus Sport Festival takes place annually to promote sport and to provide higher education students, fans and participants from Hungary and abroad (Romania, Slovakia and Ukraine) with memorable opportunities to get to know each other and socialize. Based on the results of a survey in 2017 this study analyses higher education students’ motivation to take part in such international events and focuses on similarities and differences identified among students from other countries. A programme for statistical analysis, SPPS, was used to study the differences among students from several countries and event motivational factors were taken into consideration when administering Pearson’s chi-squared and Kruskal-Wallis tests.
