What's on in London this week

Finding what's on in Budapest when you don't read Hungarian

Questions about events in Budapest

What is there to do in Budapest this week?

Palaner is showing 24 events on in Budapest right now, pulled from every listings site, ticket seller and promoter newsletter we can reach for Hungary. The list is ranked, not alphabetical: tell Palaner what you like and the order changes.

Is this a list of the usual tourist attractions?

No. Palaner only shows things that are actually happening on a date — gigs, club nights, markets, talks, socials, screenings, food events. Permanent attractions don't appear, because they aren't events.

Does it work if I don't speak Hungarian?

Yes, and that is most of the point. A lot of what is on in Budapest is only ever posted in Hungarian — on local listings sites, promoter pages and mailing lists that don't have an English version. Palaner reads those sources and shows you the results in English.

I'm only in Budapest for a few days. Is that useful?

That's the case it's built for. Say how long you're around and what you're into, and Palaner narrows 24 events down to the handful worth your evenings — with the reason it picked each one, so you can disagree with it.

Does Palaner cost anything?

No. It's free in any browser, and it isn't a ticket seller — it links out to wherever the event is actually sold.
