Night of Beaches: Bathe long into the night across Hungary this weekend!

Over the past decade and a half, the Hungarian Bathing Association’s summer Night of Beaches event has become a tradition. This time, on Saturday 27 July, the beaches will be waiting for visitors with night-long programmes, in almost 60 locations across the country!

Every year, Hungary’s beaches prepare for the season with an exciting programme of activities. The Hungarian Bathing Association contributes to this with national initiatives, which many member baths join every year, Turizmus writes.

This summer marks the 15th edition of the now-popular Night of Beaches. Around 60 venues across the country will offer a wide range of beach activities to keep you cool and relaxed. For families and children, there will be face painting and glitter tattoos, clowns, animation, bouncy castles and giant bubble magic, a candy cannon and a slide race during the day.

Party is a must during the night, be it a bathing festival, beach, pool, cocktail, balloon or foam party, music and dance in all its forms, including DJ shows, retro disco, zumba, Brazilian and Latin dance, and salsa in the water. The night will also feature sauna sessions, a beach cinema, a fire juggler and a special musical laser show.

The opening hours of the Night of Beaches are set by the participating spas themselves. Most of the beaches will be open until midnight, with a few places where you can party until 1 AM or even 2 AM. In many places, bathing establishments offer discounts for those who come to spend the night at the beach. A full list of the beaches participating in the Night of Beaches programme is available HERE.
