Pestújhely Days

Four days when community, culture, and entertainment come together in the heart of Pestújhely. From May 21 to 25, the Pestújhelyi Napok festival returns once again, offering free events for the whole neighborhood—from literature and exhibitions to concerts and a full-scale Children’s Day celebration.

Organized by Csokonai15 and the Pestújhely Community House, the event series promises surprises for all generations. The program begins with a book launch and discussion, followed by exhibitions, atmospheric concerts, folk dance, and even baby theatre performances. The weekend will highlight local traditions, with folk costume presentations and a choir gathering enriching the lineup. The closing day features a lively and engaging Children’s Day in the morning and the much-loved Pestújhely Card Game Cup in the afternoon.
