THE PESTI VIGADÓ
Budapest, 1051 Vigadó tér 2
One of Budapest's main landmark and icon.
Located in the heart of the capital city of Hungary, Pesti Vigadó –with its imposing building and magnificence – is a main attraction among Budapest-based event venues.
Built in 1865 and designed by Frigyes Feszl,Pesti Vigadó used to house decisive contemporary cultural and social events. In 1867 Franz Joseph’s coronation banquette was held here and Budapest was also born in this building from the unification of the formerly three distinct city parts of Pest, Buda and Óbuda. Among many others, Ferenc Liszt, Béla Bartók, Johannes Brahms, Camille Saint-Saëns and Claude Debussy gave performances, while Bruno Walter and Herbert von Karajan conducted orchestras in – Vigadó’s Concert Hall.
Presently, Vigadó, which has been functioning not only as the home and seat of the Hungarian Academy of Arts but also as Europe's first esamtkunstwerk centre since 2014, is privileged to offer a perfect location for cultural and arts events and also houses a wide variety of constantly changing exhibitions.
