Sensational: Budapest home to Europe’s 3rd best beer festival!

The quality of craft beer in Hungary is high – and nothing shows this better than the fact that Budapest Beer Week was voted the 3rd best craft beer festival in Europe. This year’s festival in the capital will run from 20 May to 26 May.

According to Világgazdaság, the recognition recently came from Portugal, where Budapest Beer Week was voted the 3rd best craft beer festival in Europe, after Belgium’s Billie’s Craft Beer Festival and Denmark’s Mikkeller Beer Celebration Copenhagen.

With this, the Budapest event, which has been held since 2018, has overtaken legendary events with a long history, such as the four-day Portuguese Artbeerfest Caminha and the Italian Arrogant Sour Festival.

BPBW Budapest Beer Week 2024 will run from 20 May to 26 May. The main tasting days of the BPBW 2024 will take place on 24 and 25 May in the Dürer Kert, with the free-to-attend encore day on Sunday 26 May.
