This all-night-long beer experience is a collaboration between Green Sheep and Skyland. Bottoms up!

11am - 6pm: Anna Nemes – Sheets at Várfok Project Room The first exhibition of Várfok Project Room in 2016 showcases the works of a young talent, Anna Nemes. The main focus of her artistic interest is the human body. While her earlier paintings featured disabled people, body builders, her relatives, or animals, her more recent painting portray her closest friends and family, and even the artist and her body also appear – thus, we can see lying nude figures or self-portraits frozen into different grimaces on the walls. The figures are taken out of their surroundings and contexts, thus strengthening the reflexive attitude, delving deeper into the human psyche.
7pm: The Best Bad Trip – “Emléktér” exhibition vernissage Members of The Best Bad Trip are young people in their twenties to whom the complexity of classical music does not represent neither more nor less value than the simple roughness of punk. Just as eager to build into their music a groovy funky phrase as a controlled improvisation or other strategies of contemporary music. Hard and soft, simple and complex, ordered and chaotic, Eastern and Western elements follow each other in their music. This time, they’ll play a special acoustic concert with a strong focus on jamming. And if you attend it, you can also enjoy the venue’s newest exhibition, titled “Emléktér (space of memory)”. The exhibitors place their work – both pictures and thought – on a hypothetical assumption. They articulate a theory in which they state that there is only one thing that terminates personality: an endless locality they call the space of memory. They are exploring undiscovered places while investigating space and remembrance.

Contra Mundum: Afterhours – Seme, Mistor, Smole at Corvin Bar Budapest never sleeps – not even after a Saturday night spent dancing and drinking. That’s why Afterhours came to life: a party series that starts at 6am, for those who still don’t want to leave the club, but spend some more time on the dance floor. This time, there will be two special guests, both from Romania: Seme is a regular DJ at the famous Gazette club and his record bag is full of hypnotic deep house cuts.

8pm: King Howl, Hot Beaver, No Eves at Auróra King Howl plays heavy blues: sounds coming from the first part of the 20th century, like those from Son House or Howling Wolf, are filtered out and take new shape, combining stoner rock and ’70s rock ’n’ roll style, in a new crossover. Their set is a flow of sounds that never stops, which changes with each song, speaking the blues language, with a different accent every time. Before them, two Hungarian bands will play: No Eves, who play Queens Of The Stone Age-influenced stoner rock with some more poppy twists, and Hot Beaver, who are like the Hungarian
Truckfighters: dirty, stoner-desert rock from urban hobos.
