11.30 - 5am: Brutkó + Hyenaz at Toldi Club“For our last party we entered a dark and dense forest. After all of you left two creatures appeared among the trees, dressed in white and making a loud racket. As they were approaching we realized they were following us. We would never dare to capture them, but if all goes well we will arrive at Toldi on the night of August 21st. We will try to keep them in our dark disco trap as long as possible, but take care: don’t scare them or they will scare you!” Quoth the organizers...

Don’t forget to register!8pm: Budapest Bár at Városmajor Open-air StageExcellent band, fantastic singers, and great songs – we can now say that Budapest Bár has changed our opinion about how a Gypsy-music band sounds! Budapest Bár was founded and is led by Róbert Farkas. His original intention was to give new momentum to the old-eim coffeehouse Gypsy-music genre. Ages, cultures, and generations meet in the production – perhaps that’s why the band is loved by young and old people alike. Lately, the band has reached increasingly into recent emblematic rock and pop hits. They’ve reworked Tom Waits, Simon and Garfunkel, Nick Cave, David Bowie, and even Depeche Mode songs.
