The Jewish Cultural Festival is jointly organized by the Budapest Jewish Community (BZSH) and Broadway Event – a professional team offering unique experiences. Come and bring your friends: celebrate with us, applaud together, and be part of this special experience!

Unbelievable but true: this year’s Jewish Cultural Festival will be the 27th in a row, meaning that we have been celebrating the exceptionally rich Jewish culture, traditions, and arts, which have become closely intertwined with the cultures of Hungary and its neighboring countries in the Carpathian Basin for almost thirty years.

We are proud that the festival, organized by the Budapest Jewish Community (BZSH), has become one of the most prestigious events combining various art forms in the Hungarian capital.

This is thanks in part to the artists who perform, as year after year the finest talents in the world of music accept our invitation, and of course to our wonderful audience. We are grateful to them for their loyalty over the years and for showing us that autumn simply cannot begin in Budapest without the Jewish Cultural Festival.

In the coming weeks, keep an eye out for our announcements about the programs of the 27th Jewish Cultural Festival so that you can clear your schedule for the second weekend of September, when we will celebrate ancient yet ever-renewing Jewish culture together in Budapest’s most beautiful synagogues and other community spaces!
