Expect a packed program of hit plays, concerts, and family shows, with star turns from beloved Hungarian performers, cult comedy arrivals, and musical blockbusters under the night sky. The organizers reserve the right to change dates and programs, so keep your plans nimble and your picnic blankets ready.
2026.06.21. — Charlie concert. Horváth Charlie, the unmistakable giant of Hungarian pop, blues, and jazz, opens the season with a voice that’s gravel and gold in equal measure. Prepare for a trip where smoky blues, hot-blooded jazz, and authentic Hungarian rock meet the magic of Veresegyház evenings. Evergreen anthems like Double Scotch (Jég dupla jéggel) and Look to the Sky (Nézz az ég felé) will ring out — songs generations belt along to with the man himself.
2026.06.24. — István Mohácsi: French Pole Vault (Francia rúdugrás) (18+). Three women, three men, one stormy night, and a sextet of switched roles. It starts simple — who belongs to whom — until chemistry crashes in, along with a know-it-all sex psychologist. After a hurricane of misunderstandings and almost-moments, you can only hope it all lands on its feet.
2026.07.03. — Neil Simon: Rumors (Pletykafészek). Lean back and follow the wildfire path of gossip through the upper crust as the privileged elite tie themselves in knots. A classic two-act farce with pristine timing, dizzying lies, and laugh-out-loud relief.
2026.07.07. — László Dés – Péter Geszti – Krisztián Grecsó: The Paul Street Boys (A Pál utcai fiúk). The classic isn’t told by children but by young adults whose conflicts cut even deeper. Today’s musical textures and lyrics intensify the drama, while the show’s heartbeat is the acoustic world of objects, the actors’ musical-rhythmic inventiveness, and the humor and strength of youth — all delivering the novel’s cathartic punch.
2026.07.08. — The Paul Street Boys returns for a second performance, again as a two-act musical. Expect the same modern sound, tougher dilemmas, and the raw surge of ensemble energy that has made this adaptation an instant favorite.
2026.07.12. — The Jungle Book (A dzsungel könyve). Mowgli, the boy who defeats his enemies and searches for happiness with his new family beneath thick leaves. A must-see, heart-squeezing yet heartwarming tale about friendship and love, for children and the forever young.
2026.07.15. — Jeanie Linders: Menopause The Musical (Menopauza). That certain season of life arrives for every woman. Some hide it, others crack jokes — this musical does both loudly, honestly, and riotously. Expect camaraderie, confession, and serious laugh therapy.
2026.07.19. — Péter Geszti concert. The frontman of positive energy brings stadium-shaking Rapülők dance hits, Jazz+Az funk, Gringó Sztár swagger, and Létvágy pop delicacies. It’s live, high-gloss, and heavy on humor and frank lyrics.
2026.07.21. and 2026.07.22. — You Rang, M’Lord? (Csengetett, Mylord?) world premiere. The beloved TV characters stride onstage in Veresegyház for a summer night to remember. Nostalgia, new gags, and a household staff that never met a crisis it couldn’t complicate.
2026.07.26. — Steven Moffat: The Unfriend (Rém rendes vendég) — two-act comedy. Peter and Debbie, the perfect English couple, befriend Elsa, a widowed American, on a cruise. They swap addresses, make the usual let’s-visit promises — which normally fade. Not this time. One day, Elsa rings their bell. By then, the internet has told them things that freeze their blood. They don’t want her near their teens. But they don’t want to offend her. Enter an overhelpful neighbor, a police sergeant, and a blizzard of brilliant comic situations. Fresh from a London West End hit to Budapest’s Játékszín — and now to Veresegyház for open-air mischief.
2026.07.28. — Not Now, Darling (Ne most, Drágám!) — comedy. Love triangles, mink coats, scantily clad surprises, clothing flying out of windows, full-tilt madness — all inside London’s poshest fur salon, engineered solely for your untroubled delight.
2026.08.01. — It Was Only One Dance (Csak egy tánc volt) — Pál Szécsi’s greatest hits. Some songs never age; some voices lodge in our hearts for good. Under the stars, the legacy of one of Hungarian pop’s brightest fixed stars comes alive. Performers: Zoltán Miller, Dénes Pál, Attila Serbán, and Sándor Nagy.
2026.08.05. — The Murder of Roger Ackroyd (Az Ackroyd gyilkosság) — crime. Hercule Poirot retires to King’s Abbot, a tranquil English village. Peace is brief. Two inexplicable deaths later, the little grey cells are back at work. Artúr Kálid steps in as Poirot, with P. Szilveszter Szabó as Dr. James Sheppard in a tense Agatha Christie classic.
2026.08.07. — Lovers of Ancona (Anconai szerelmesek) — musical comedy. For two decades, one of the most-played Hungarian stage comedies. It marries the best of Italian marketplace clowning with traditional Hungarian humor and the 1970s’ most beloved Italian hits.
2026.08.11. — Lovers of Ancona at Lake Balaton (Anconai szerelmesek a Balatonon) — musical comedy. Twenty calendar years have passed since miraculous reunions and multiple weddings, but the heart says time stood still. The summer of 1989 beckons the whole Italian crew to Hungary in search of roots, old-new loves, and a little peace. The SZOT resort manager, Comrade Békés, ensures the miracles keep coming, to the soundtrack of Azzurro, Bella Ciao, and Sono l’italiano.
2026.08.15. — One Life (Egy életem) — biographical stand-up with Imre Csuja. He talks life: a modest, funny, heartwarming journey from a mother who directed his childhood to early stage years, days with four performances, lessons from veterans, and meeting his wife over 40 years ago. And yes, legends like Glass Tiger (Üvegtigris) and A Kind of America (Valami Amerika) surface with workshop secrets.
2026.08.18. — Beyond Smudge Mountain? (Túl a Maszat-hegyen?) — comedy. A world where mess is order, cleaning is chaos. Andris Muhi ventures out to save friends from the realm of stains, dusters, and fearsome neat freaks. A colorful, magical, earworm-laced trip for all ages — with vacuum cleaners that don’t always pick the right side.
2026.08.29. — Not a Ragged Life — Restitched (Nem rongyos élet — újravarrva) — operetta gala. Last year’s promise, overdelivered. The giants of straight theatre and the stars of operetta reunite to prove that Hungarian operetta — a true hungarikum — belongs to everyone. New faces, old favorites, and a rousing csárdás to close a summer that refuses to fade.
