It opened its gates first on 14 March 2005, and has been offering almost 25 000 events performed by almost one million artist altogether since then. This venue offers a wide range of cultural events: it provides a home for contemporary, classical, popular and world music, and also opera, jazz, dance, film, literature and film, but you can also find contemporary circus performances in their schedule.
On 15 and 16 March, Müpa celebrates its 20th anniversary, with a weekend full of programmes and complementary events to enjoy between the concerts. So if you visit Budapest this weekend, it is really worth scheduling a visit in there.
