The 7th Boglart Festival returns to Balatonboglár from August 26 (Wednesday) to 30 (Sunday), 2026, at Szabadság utca 28, 8630. This family-friendly folk and world music festival and camp welcomes fans to Babel Camp right on Lake Balaton’s shore. It’s a mix of festival, folk music camp, music industry forum, and showcase. Days focus on music learning through workshops, while evenings feature bands alternating between two stages, followed by dancing till dawn in the folk pub.
Irresistible Festival Vibe
Boglart’s magic comes from blending music camp and festival: daytime lessons, nighttime dances and concerts. Far more than just a series of gigs, it’s an inspiring creative space and community experience where learning, music, and Balaton summer harmony shine. Year after year, it stands out in Hungarian and international festival lineups by uniquely fusing camp immersion with festival thrills.
Star Lineup, Workshops & More
Newly announced acts include Belgian Enara Navaira, Senegalese Afrikora, Istrian Veja, and Hungarian favorites Okos Viola and Obadu, plus festival hosts Góbé. Performers often double as daytime teachers, covering everything from Moldavian and string folk techniques to music industry insights in workshops. Evenings feature dance houses followed by world music-electronic afterparties. After last year’s buzz, the showcase block returns for domestic and international pros to connect and brainstorm.
