The word festival usually indicates a series of never-ending parties and pumping beats all through the night. Fortunately, the palette is much more colourful than that. We collected some of the best cultural festivals of the season, presenting a number of real fascinating programmes for art enthusiasts.
Paloznak Jazz Picnic
Friendly atmosphere, a wide range of fine gastronomical treats and excellent musicians are awaiting you at Jazz Picnic with four stages and twenty concerts. Although the original rustic charm of the gathering is preserved, word-class musicians are bringing you the concert experience you long for at a festival. Between 3 and 5 August, see you in Paloznak!
27th Valley of Arts Festival
The biggest art festival of the country, organized between 21 and 30 July in Kapolcs and the neighboring Vigántpetend and Taliándörögd presents close 1200 programs and exciting productions this year: concerts, plays, literary talks, social gatherings and interactive games. Besides a number of highly praised Hungarian artists, you can see internationally acclaimed performers, too, such as Nouvelle Vague, Deluxe or Pink Martini.
26th Zemplén Festival
Between 11 and 19, the Zemplén Festival awaits you with a series of colourful programs for the 26th time: classical music, jazz, literature, theatre, dance, exhibitions and trips – make sure you don’t miss out on the exciting cultural happening!
Veszprémfeszt
