Budapest – New circus will be built close to Nyugati Railway Station!
Change language:
According to the Hungarian government’s decision, a new building will be built for the Hungarian circus art next to the Nyugati Railway Station. Until the termination of The National Circus Art Center’s construction – which is realised within the framework of Liget Budapest project – the institution is operating on its current site, in the City Park, in the vicinity of Budapest Zoo.
Based on the government’s decision – the two times greater National Circus Art Center will be built on a five times larger territory – announced by Péter Fekete, Cultural Secretary of Human Resources Department.
He also added: construction of The National Circus Art Center will be realised in one of the most valuable areas of Budapest, near the Western Railway Station; and will reflect the size and quality of the world-famous Hungarian circus art. Additionally, the centre will not only serve as a circus but will operate as a school, museum and research centre. Further good news is that during the new building’s construction, Capital Circus of Budapest will smoothly operate in its present location, in the City Park.
