Ricky Martin to hold a free concert in Budapest!
This year’s “Napi Mázli Superconcert” will take place on 21 September at Heroes’ Square in Budapest, featuring superstar Ricky Martin as the headline act. The announcement was made by Andrea Mager, CEO of Szerencsejáték Plc. (Hungary’s main gambling company), during a press conference in Budapest on Wednesday. Other performers will include popular Hungarian artists Metzker Viktória, Regán Lili, and T. Danny.
Free superconcert on Heroes’ Square
Mager highlighted that the superconcert series has provided free, registration-free musical experiences for tens of thousands of people over the years. After being held at different venues, this year’s concert returns to the iconic Heroes’ Square, allowing the public to enjoy the music in a grand setting.
In addition to the entertainment, attendees can also contribute to a charitable cause by purchasing lottery tickets at the event. Proceeds from the ticket sales will be donated to the Ökumenikus Segélyszervezet (Hungarian Interchurch Aid) to support disadvantaged families, continuing the tradition of past years.
Kristóf Gáncs, Executive Director of the charity, recalled that last year’s concert raised HUF 8.5 million (EUR 21,630), which helped fund the operations of the “Safe Start Children’s House” in Szendrő. This initiative supports children from disadvantaged backgrounds from infancy onward. Gáncs also announced a new four-year strategic partnership between Szerencsejáték Plc. and the charity, with plans to launch a dedicated lottery ticket next year, the proceeds of which will directly benefit the organisation’s work.
Last year’s superconcert attracted around 50,000 attendees to Szoborpark, with an additional 15,000 people tuning in online. This year’s event celebrates the launch of Szerencsejáték Plc.’s new lottery game, Napi Mázli (Daily Luck), hence the event’s official name: “Napi Mázli Superconcert.”
Ricky Martin to perform his greatest hits in Budapest!
The show will kick off with a DJ set by Metzker Viktória, followed by performances from rapper and singer T. Danny and pop artist Regán Lili. The grand finale will be Ricky Martin’s performance, featuring spectacular visuals and some of his biggest hits like “Livin’ la Vida Loca” and “She Bangs”.
As in previous years, people with disabilities will have access to an accessible viewing platform close to the stage, with an exclusive entry point reserved for them to ensure ease of access.
