Budapest Summer Bridge Festival

In 1999 Budapest had a  Summer on the Chain Bridge Festival as a way to celebrate, the Bridge that connects Buda to Pest, 150th birthday. Since then it has become an annual festival.

This iconic symbol of the Hungarian Capital is closed to traffic during summer and transformed into a huge stage. It hosts a series of free events and musical theatrical performances. Every weekend from  June to August, visitors can enjoy the breathtaking views of the Danube, while being entertained by free performances of jazz and classical music. There are also several stalls of cultural displays, traditional Hungarian food, and drinks with a festive atmosphere.

If you are interested in attending this exciting event in Budapest, remember it is quite popular, so most accommodations are usually booked early.  So, make sure to book way in advance to get the best prices and offers. There are a lot of accommodation options available in Budapest to suit any budget whether you are an independent traveler, a backpacker or you are traveling with your family. Private apartments and youth hostels are the usual choices.

If apartment accommodation is what you are seeking, then there are lots of classy, comfortable apartments available. These usually cost 10-30 euros per person. Some are situated in downtown Budapest, like the Anna Center Apartment, Akademia Apartments, Apartment St. Michael, Gabriella and Elizabeth Apartments, Navigare Apartments, Budapest Flats, Arcadia Apartments, and Aida Apartment.

Youth Hostels have lower rates per person.
