On February 8, 2026, the Monor Hegyessy Lions Club hosts the 14th Falánk Fánkfalók Találkozója (Gluttonous Donut Devourers’ Gathering), a beloved local tradition that blends sugar, fun, and giving. It’s not just for donut lovers — it’s for anyone who wants to support a good cause with a smile and a full plate.
Eat Donuts, Do Good
Over the years, this meetup has grown into one of the area’s favorite community events. The goal is simple: enjoy yourself while backing a noble mission. This year’s proceeds will fund Christmas gifts for local children in need, turning every bite into a small act of kindness.
What’s on the Menu and Program
Expect classic ring donuts and túrófánk (cottage cheese donuts), plus hot tea and mulled wine. The vibe stays festive with a carnival costume contest and the awards ceremony for the Lions’ Peace Poster drawing competition.

Pros
+
Family-friendly vibe with donuts, costumes, and a kids’ art awards ceremony that’s easy-going and welcoming
+
Feel-good charity angle—your snacking helps fund Christmas gifts for local children
+
Low language barrier for enjoyment; ordering donuts, tea, or mulled wine is simple, and Lions Club volunteers often speak some English
+
Easy day trip from Budapest: Monor is about 30–40 minutes by train or car, and KultPince is a known local venue
+
Unique local flavor (túrófánk, mulled wine) you won’t usually find at U.S. donut events
+
Safer, smaller-scale crowd than big-city festivals—good for families wanting a relaxed outing
+
Compared with similar food fundraisers abroad, this has a charming village-carnival feel rather than a commercial festival vibe
- Not internationally famous, so you’ll get minimal “must-see” bragging rights
Cons
–
Monor itself isn’t a major tourist hub, so fewer English signs and limited tourist infrastructure
–
Hungarian helps for announcements and the costume contest; you can get by without it, but you may miss nuances
–
If you expect a large-scale U.S.-style food festival, this is smaller and more homespun, with shorter program depth
