Budapest

Nightlife

What do you fancy most: sparkling parties in some of the hottest clubs or a nice and cosy bar where you can enjoy a long conversation and a glass of wine? Check our nightlife guide, with clubs, cafes and venue listings.


Wigwam

Wigwam

The name gives it away because Indians are the central theme. You stand, so to speak, in a wigwam. Contrary to what you'd expect, the majority of bands performing here play rock. The bands are predominantly Hungarian, although every now and again international bands also feature on the programme. You can hear rock hits from the 70s to the 90s every Thursday. The garden's also open in the summer. [Read more]


Varkert Casino

Varkert Casino

Fancy a night's gambling? Varkert Casino is the place to go. Like anywhere else in Europe, you won't get in unless you're 18. Before you're allowed in, your details are recorded and your photo is taken. You're then issued with a pass which, from that moment on, is all you need to show to get in. Varkert Casino is open 24 hours a day, so you can stay as long as you like. Interesting detail: the royal family's water used to be stored here. [Read more]

A38 lies on the Danube and offers three floors of entertainment: the roof terrace, the restaurant and the club/lounge. All the space you need to enjoy its famous live international music. [Read more]
