Top 5 Budapest’s Party Places for Saturday Night

Portfolio.hu collected a couple of places which changed their original functions.

Iskola/Tűzraktér

Once there was a ground school in the 3500 sqare foot-building in Hegedű Street 3. Tűraktér club was operating here between 2008 and 2011, then the City Council of Terézváros made it move out. After that, the 6. district wrote a tender, which was won by the designers of Iskol, who wanted to create a new cultural center. The new club opened in the autumn of 2012 in order to bring back the feeling of the schools of the 70’s and 80’s. You can find here a canteen, a gym and even a wine bar, which could be popular among students. Due to renovation, Iskola was closed in August, but it was present at the Sziget Festival. Reopening will be in September, portfolio.hu says.

Dürer Garden

The most famous club of the Városliget is located in the Ajtósi Dürer sor 19, which formerly belonged to the ELTE. Before the opening in 2008, it gave place to the Faculty of Humanities and the college. Nowadays, Dürer is known for its huge garden.

A38

According to portfolio.hu, A38 – one of the most popular club in Budapest – was a ship called Artemovsk 38. Artemovsk  stone carrier ship was built in 1968 in Ukraine and she has been anchoring in Budapest from 2003. It required two years for planning, permitting and  the construction work. A38 won the best club title in a vote of Electronic Beats.
