A wide-ranging programme of cultural events is underway to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Battle of Mohács, one of the defining moments in Hungarian history.
The Andrássy150 festival features two weeks of exhibitions, performances and community events from August 24 to September 6, marking 150 years since Andrássy Avenue opened. It offers expats a chance to experience the boulevard’s history, architecture and contemporary cultural scene through a programme that is largely free.
On display until 16 August. The Vasarely 120 exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts will close to visitors on Sunday.
Pottery will be the focus of the 40th Festival of Folk Arts, held in Budapest's Castle District from Aug 20 to 23, with the United States as the guest of honour, organisers said.
