Transdanubia
In the preceding years, the Zalaegerszeg Wild Game Stew and Wine – Zala Specialities Festival was signed as Downtown Harvest in the event calendar of the town. The gastrotheme of the festival is the unique and inimitable forests of Zala, the game and the area of Göcsej.
Every year more than ten thousand people attend this charming event, held among the Baroque and Secessionist buildings of the Main Square of Veszprém.
This year fresh Rosés, Rieslings, fröccs (froech - Hungarian speciality: wine with sparkling water) and of course fresh Jazz musicians provide refreshment to lovers of gastro-cultural pleasures. The event is part of 13th VeszprémFest.
Hungarikum Festival Events
What is a Hungarikum? Distinguished by their uniquely Hungarian nature, normally of ultimate quality and excellence, and now protected by a great deal of legislation, the Hungarikum is a Hungarian good or product . A large number of items fit into this category, from Salami and recipes, to wines and spirits. Hungarikum also covers non-edible items such as Porcelain from Herend and Halási Lace, not to mention breeds of cow, sheep and dog. Come and learn about them all!
Wine Days of Mór Events
The most prestigious event of the Mór Wine Region is the Wine Days of Mór. The main attraction of the event is Ezerjó, the most famous wine of the region.
Villány Rosé Marathon Events
Previously known simply as the Rosé Marathon, the event is now more firmly linked with the name Fröccs Festival (fröccs being a kind of wine spritzer) and with Villány, a town famous for its fruity rosé wines. The Conga-dancing and musical parade are fuelled by plenty of it (raspberry lemonade for the children). Points are awarded not for speed but for the creativity of costumes.
Old Lake Fishing Festival Events
The top attraction of the Fishing Festival is the spectacular fishing show performed with a 400-metre-long trawl net, a unique sight not to be seen elsewhere in Hungary.
