2012 New Year Parties in Budapest

Here are some of the Budapest New Year Parties (Szilveszteri Party) on Dec 31 2012. The list is far from comprehensive, basically all major pubs, bars in Budapest, clubs, cafes and Budapest restaurants are throwing a party, or are hired for an invitation only party on NYE.

Luckily, most of the parties are open to all, and you can often buy a ticket in advance (i.e. buy on the spot, or at some major ticket vendor). Besides parties at Szilveszter (New Year’s Eve in Hungarian) you can also find many pre NYE parties (Eloszilveszteri party) held on Dec 30, like the Budapest New Year Bath Party.
