Gay Budapest Guide: Dance Parties

Since about 2005, Budapest has always had a smaller or greater number of monthly gay parties. Their life span depends on their ability to find gay friendly locales not too far from downtown, and of course, provide quality at a reasonable price.

Besides bigger dance parties advertised in Budapest gay magazines, the last few years has seen some events only being promoted on Facebook and through word of mouth.

All parties allow girls to attend so be prepared to mingle with the gentler sex.

As of March 2012, we know of the following gay parties in Budapest. Check their websites or Facebook page for dates and location.

 

Liberty

Usually held at club Prestige on the Buda side. A nice, trendy space, and quality vocal/house music with plenty of eye candy on the dancefloor and on the podium.
