Folk Christmas in Budapest
Christmas time in Hungary is greatly influenced by the Hungarian folklore (such as in Christmas songs and dances, Christmas stories, Christmas decorations etc.).
Budapest Christmas Markets
The Christmas Markets in Budapest (usually open from mid-November) offer a wide range of Folk Crafts at their stalls – all handmade products carefully selected by a Professional Panel to represent some of the best contemporary handcrafts with folk motifs, among others. The Christmas Market at St Stephen’s Basilica often holds free folk concerts (programme available in November).
Budapest Christmas Market Tour
Should you be interested in Hungarian Christmas Traditions, we recommend you to book a guided Christmas Market Tour, where you can learn more about traditions and Hungarian Folk Culture, while enjoying a 3-tier wine tasting, a chimney cake and a mug of mulled wine.
