Cancelled: Rita Ora Concert, Budapest Park, 29 July
Rita Ora is bringing her biggest hits to Budapest Park this summer to light up the city’s nightlife on July 29.

Known for songs such as Anywhere, Let You Love Me, and Praising You, the internationally acclaimed performer has already appeared at several Hungarian festivals.

This time, however, she will captivate the Hungarian audience with a full headline show.

Rita Ora is a Kosovo Albanian–born British singer, actress, and fashion icon. She boasts 10 billion streams worldwide and 13 Top 10 singles, four of which reached No. 1 on the UK charts.

She was also among the first recipients of the BRIT Billion Award after surpassing one billion streams in the United Kingdom.

Her latest album, You & I, was released in 2023 and immediately claimed the top spot on the UK Official Independent Albums Chart.

Rolling Stone described the record as a “stunning collection of love songs,” featuring hits such as Praising You with Fatboy Slim and You Only Love Me.

Of course, even before You & I, she was a regular presence on the charts thanks to tracks like Bang, Anywhere, and For You, which was featured on the soundtrack of Fifty Shades Freed.

A truly versatile personality, Rita Ora has made her mark not only in music but also in television, culture, and fashion.

In 2024, together with Anna Lahey, she launched her own haircare brand, TYPEBEA, following an earlier collaboration with Primark on her debut clothing collection.

She has appeared in films such as Fifty Shades of Grey, Pokémon Detective Pikachu, Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight, and the TV series Descendants: The Rise of Red.

She has also hosted shows including Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve and the MTV Europe Music Awards, served as a judge on both the US and UK versions of The Masked Singer, and acted as a mentor on The Voice Australia.

Rita Ora has previously performed at major Hungarian festivals such as Balaton Sound, EFOTT, and SZIN.

Now audiences can experience her in a full headline show on July 29 at Budapest Park.
