European Championship: Cheer on your favourite team in Buda Castle!

From June 14, football enthusiasts can take over the Öntőház courtyard of the Várkert Bazaar, which was renovated 10 years ago. All European Championship matches can be followed for free on a giant screen.

On the specially designed fan terrace, not only a unique atmosphere but also a wonderful view of the Danube awaits all interested, the National Hauszmann Programme writes. Fans can also buy refreshing drinks on-site. At the foot of the prestigious walls of the Buda Castle, football will take centre stage, and among the diverse program offerings characteristic of the Várkert Bazaar, the cheer “Go, Hungarians!” can resound again.

Watch European Championship matches in Buda Castle

For the first time during the 2021 European Championship, one of Budapest’s most beautiful cultural spaces became a fan venue. Due to its great success, this year, in cooperation with the Nemzeti Sport and the National Széchényi Library, we are awaiting visitors interested in football with special programs.

The set-up giant screen and the accompanying fan terrace will meet the needs of every supporter who wants to follow the decisive matches of the Hungarian national team in a unique environment. At the venue, which can accommodate hundreds of people, our event series will be accompanied by programs related to the world of football, discussions, film screenings, quizzes, and a special exhibition.

Football will take centre stage at several locations in the Buda Castle District. From June 14, visitors are welcomed with a unique exhibition, which will partly be outdoors and partly in the inner spaces of the National Széchényi Library. The exhibition titled “Football of All Times” aims to present the relationship between sport and culture through Hungarian football successes.
