  1. Indoor Beer Festival – 18-19th February in the InterContinental Hotel : The country’s first winter beer festival is taking place this weekend in Budapest. You can find international craft beers, APA, IPA, stout and they also show you the cultural history of these drinks. If you buy your ticket, you have unlimited consumption.
  2. Carnival (Farsang in Hungarian) – 18-19th in Tompa street : it is Carnival season and this time of the year Hungarians organize parties where people dress up in (funny) costumes. In the 9th district of Budapest, in Tompa street, the catering units (restaurants, bars, cafés like B-terv Kávézó, Crafty bar, Manfred bakery, Paletta, San Ramon Caffee) will have Carnival menus or programs. Other bars in Budapest will also have costume parties for sure in these coming days/weeks.

You can only pay in cash at the event!
  4.
