Tips & Advice

  • Come on a weekend if you want live music, because the concerts and family programs run only on Saturdays and Sundays.
  • Keep your reusable cup and hand it back at the end, since the full cup charge is refunded.
  • Fridays and Saturdays stay open later into the evening, and on weekends the market opens in the morning rather than the afternoon.
  • Bring the kids for the ice rink, which is open every day the market runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is there to do?

There's an ice rink every day and a market of crafts and food stalls on Fő tér and the streets around it. On weekends there are concerts and family programs too.

How do drinks work at the stalls?

Drinks come only in the organizer's reusable cups. You get the full cup charge back when you return the cup. All other tableware is biodegradable and eco-friendly.

Are there toilets and first aid?

Yes. There are mobile toilets and security staff. An ambulance service is on site during concerts, and a medical patrol covers other times.

How can I sell at the market?

Food and craft businesses apply with the application form, sent signed and stamped to obudaadvent@gmail.com. The deadline was September 15. Only companies and sole traders can sign a contract, not private individuals with a tax number. Applying doesn't guarantee a place.

Is it good for families?

Yes. The daily ice rink and the weekend family programs are aimed at families.
