Events throughout the year

Harvest event in autumn in Gyenesdiás, Lake Balaton

The spring and autumn also attract with a wide range of events.

In March, the LEPKE hiking tour can be completed over various distances in the Keszthely Hills, depending on how fit and adventurous you feel. The Spring Festival is a real spring event for the whole family in April at Lake Balaton. An outdoor cooking competition, traditional cuisine, games, excursions, horse riding demonstrations, archery, a driftwood and millstone throwing competition and music await you on the Great Lawn (Nagymező).

Before Easter you can get a taste of the classic Easter preparations: painting eggs with traditional techniques, baking cakes in a wood-burning oven, day-old chicks and bunnies.

In May, the Happy Times of Peace Festival invites you to a costumed journey back in time to Hévíz: a costume parade, good mood and a special atmosphere that remind us of the 1920s, a varied program and retro cars guarantee an unforgettable experience.

In autumn you can participate in several grape harvest festivals in Gyenesdiás, Hévíz and Badacsony. You can taste the must from the new harvest and celebrate the harvest with a good party.

In Keszthely the Barrel Organ Festival awaits you in autumn with the atmosphere of the old times. The Dance Panorama offers sensational dance performances in different styles. The Perch Festival in Szigliget and the Trout Festival in Tapolca offer delicious food and unique handicraft products. If you feel like experiencing the atmosphere of a pork festival, we recommend the Sausage Festival in Vonyarcvashegy.

On St. Martin’s Day you can taste new wine with goose delicacies.
