About the Budapest Festival Center Kht.
As of January 1, 1996 the Budapest Festival Center Kht. has been the official organizer of various cultural events of the Municipality of Budapest. Since its establishment, the office has maintained good work relationship with similar international and Hungarian program offices, and has organized festivals. Since 1996, the three major annual festivals of Budapest, the Spring Festival, the Budapest Fair and the Autumn Festival have been organized, as exclusive coordinator, by the Budapest Festival Center Kht.
The office operates according to the concept of "Budapest- A Festival City". Due to our accomplishments, Budapest has gained world-wide recognition as a city of arts and culture, and our vision is to rank Budapest among the leading cultural capitals of Europe. To a varying extent, the Budapest Festival Center Kht. participates in every cultural event taking place in Budapest. The season starts with the Spring Festival, and ends with the Autumn Festival, with a number of exciting cultural programs in between. It is the responsibility of the Budapest Festival Center to ensure that these events while demonstrating their distinct qualities shall have a common trait. Namely, that each of them shall represent a high artistic standard. As an additional task of the office, it is one of our top priorities to best utilize PR possibilities emanating from these cultural events. In other words, to further the image of Budapest as a Festival city both within and beyond the borders of Hungary.
