Get Ready … On your mark Kraft Beer Festival … Whoa!

Local and regional breweries from the neighboring countries … plus the selection of the local distributors and the specialties of domestic beer shops again this year in September hit the beer road to the Dürer Kert (Garden), Budapest.

KRAFT has always been for many at the bottom of their hearts. A beer festival featuring regional names where Hungarian kraft breweries are in the spotlight. It’s not an unlimited all-you-can-drink festival (perhaps we’re better known for that), but a token-based, pay-per-drink, casual event for not only the beer geeks but every beer fan (even the ones who just started their journey with special beers).

Needless to say, there will be concerts in the background, also invited food trucks and selectors-djs, but basically, wish to have an all-round, close-knit, outdoor festival with all the good vibes.

The Budapest Beer Week team evokes the unparalleled, liberating atmosphere of international beer festivals with this event, as for the brewers will personally tap their beers, so can have a nice talk between barrel-aged imperial stouts and fruity berliner weisses. Of course, there will also be classic lagers and ales for lovers of more traditional flavors, to make sure everyone finds their happiness at the end of the day.

The entry to the festival is FREE of Charge, but if anyone should like to have some more beers, will have to purchase a KRAFT branded festival-glass, and some tokens. The official currency of the festival is the token. All the BPBW and KRAFT glassware from the previous years are valid, just like the KRAFT tokens you have left from the previous editions.

Why is it worth jumping on the bandwagon now? Besides saving money, there’s another reason: this year, only those who purchase discounted token packages in advance will be guaranteed the official 2025 limited tasting glass. By the second half of the festival, chances are only previous years’ glasses will be left in stock, so if you’re aiming for the brand-new 2025 edition, plan ahead! On th spot options to choose from in 3–4–5 dl sizes, and anyone may also bring their favorite glass from a past year.

Opening hours:
Thursday … September, 11. 4 p.m. – 1 a.m.
Friday … September, 12. 3 p.m. – 2 a.m.
Saturday … September 13. Noon – 2 a.m.
Sunday … September, 14. Noon – 10.30 p.m.

Discover the heart of the Dürer Kert (Garden) nightlife … stroll along the socalled “pub tour” and enjoy your timeout with friends and fantastic beers beside great live music.
