The city explodes outdoor in Budapest....as with the outdoor baths, this what it's all about. 'The Longest Open air Summer Festival' is raucously nested between the highways. Day & night large menu of salads & BBQ, full bar beer-garden to beat it all. Pretty big acts, gigs daily at 8pm, later 2 dance floors, BIG SCENE, DJ's kicking sounds. Plenty of options of hangin' or jumpin' around from morning till dawn. The sky's the limit.... It's party time!!!!
Entry 400HUF (€1.3): you'll need 2x200 HUF coins or 4x100HUF coins, only in this combination. You put them in the gate and the gate gives you a beer voucher. So basically free entry.

Fecske terrace
An other weird but totally amazing setting: Fecske is on the top of Komjadi swimming pool. Deck chairs, cushions, cocktails, rose spritzers or ice cold beer, mellow music....one side are the pools and the sun setting, the other side is the Danube and the city. Wonderful.
