Between 10 and 12 June, you can get to know the best domestic and foreign brands of gin and tonic at this special event. Just as a gin craze sweeps the capital, Bálna Budapest is hosting the first large-scale domestic festival with the juniper drink in the spotlight, Gin Market Budapest.


The Queen’s favourite tipple was originally used medicinally and, contrary to popular belief, was not an invention of the English, as it was consumed in the Netherlands as early as the 17th century. Gin’s conquest of the globe spans several centuries, and has now reached Budapest. At Gin Market Budapest, you can pair the best domestic and foreign brands with the right tonic or even in the form of a cocktail. And if you’re a real aficionado, we can dive deeper into the world of gin at a masterclass. The atmosphere is cheerful and bubbly, and as day turns to night, resident DJ Yellow sets the tone.


You can find more information about the event on the Gin Market Budapest Facebook page.
