Greet the New Year in the style of the 19th century! Budapest shows its prestige on the 31st of December, presenting an absolute and entire night program on our Gala Celebration!
The program takes place in one of Budapest Downtown’s most distinguished theatre buildings, the Pesti Vigadó. The building itself is of great importance, due to its role in the birth of today’s capital, as it was the host of the meeting where the mayoralty of the three main parts of the city declared unity. Predecessor to the Vigadó of Pest, the Redoute, opened its doors in 1833 as a masterpiece of Classicism. Being the only concert hall in the capital at the time, artists like Strauss, Erkel and Liszt played there; so the Pesti Vigadó is the proper location to greet and celebrate the New Year.

Tickets are available separately, in multiple options:

Full night event (5 course gala dinner, 1st category concert seat, salon reception)
Gala Dinner and Gala Concert (5 course gala dinner, 1st category concert seat)
