One of Budapest’s most colorful cultural festivals returns this June as KoreaON 2026 brings two full days of Korean culture, music, food and entertainment to the Kristály Színtér on Margaret Island.
Over the years, KoreaON has become a favorite event for K-pop fans and Korean culture enthusiasts in Hungary, but it’s also a great experience for anyone curious about Korean food, beauty trends, music or modern Asian pop culture.
The festival combines traditional and contemporary Korean culture in a relaxed outdoor setting. Throughout the weekend, visitors can enjoy concerts, dance performances, workshops, cultural activities and family-friendly programs while discovering Korean gastronomy, K-beauty products and interactive experiences.
One of the most exciting parts of KoreaON is the mix of old and new Korea: traditional performances and crafts appear alongside modern K-pop culture, beauty brands and Korean companies.
Programs:
• international guest performers
• K-pop shows and parties
• Korean music and dance performances
• workshops and craft activities
• Korean street food and gastronomy
• K-beauty and skincare experiences
• Korean cultural and company booths
• family-friendly activities and community programs
The atmosphere is especially unique thanks to the festival’s location on Margaret Island, where visitors can spend the whole day exploring programs, relaxing outdoors and enjoying a summer cultural festival unlike anything else in Budapest.
Opening hours:
• Saturday, June 13, 2026: 10:00–20:00
(indoor programs close at 18:00)
• Sunday, June 14, 2026: 10:00–18:00
