Advent in Budapest has been declared the most beautiful in Europe, so it is worth visiting in this year's festive December.
Budapest is one of the most beautiful European cities and attracts a fair number of visitors from all over the world throughout the year. It is famous for its cultural and historical attractions, tempting gastronomic offer and interesting thermal baths.
It is precisely because of the wide range of activities that do not depend on the time of year that it belongs to the very top of the most desirable European destinations. The Christmas fair only further enriches the offer of the city and makes the Hungarian capital even more attractive.
Advent fairs do their best every year to attract more life and tourists to the city with their originality. At the very top of the list of the most innovative and attractive, the Christmas market in Budapest belongs without a doubt. It attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year, and this year will be even more special.
In accordance with Christmas customs, a new candle is lit on the large Advent wreath every Advent Sunday. The ceremony of lighting the lights around the city is accompanied by various musical performances.
The slogan of this year's Advent is "In love and security". This slogan opens the Advent celebration of Budapest's most beautiful Christmas market in front of the Basilica, where more than 100 artisans and gourmet vendors offer popular fair food, decorations and handicrafts, as well as many gifts.
In front of the Basilica of St. Štefana, you will find delicious Hungarian and international specialties, as well as attractions such as a children's ice rink surrounded by a large Christmas tree.
The Budapest Christmas Market officially starts on November 18, 2022 and runs until January 1, 2023.
