This year, Szomolya is filling up the calendar with state, church, and secular holidays, plus tradition‑preserving programs. The star is still the Cherry Festival, with black cherries in the spotlight. You’re invited—and yes, there will be plenty of reasons to party.
Key Dates
2026.03.07 – International Women’s Day celebration with Csaba Vastag, in the heart of Szomolya. Live music, a festive atmosphere, and cheerful vibes to kick off spring.
2026.06.06–2026.06.07 – Szomolya Cherry Festival: a nationally renowned event with tastings, programs, and black cherries in every form.
Stay in Style
Noble comfort on the banks of the Kánya Stream (Kánya‑patak): two grand, bourgeois‑style apartments with spacious, sunlit rooms and fully equipped kitchens. At the foot of the Bükk Mountains, 9.3 miles from Eger, three cave houses on a one‑hectare property await: 4‑, 6‑, and 9‑bed apartments with private bathrooms, toilets, hot water, underfloor heating, and equipped kitchens. Each has a terrace, a separate grill, and a cauldron cooking area.
Wine and Good Vibes
Fine wines and good vibes in the land of beehive rocks and Szomolya’s black cherries. The Nagy family’s winery, founded in 2001 in Szomolya, operates on the eastern side of the Eger Wine Region; from vine growing to bottling, everything is under family supervision. Another family winery stands in one of the best sites of the Eger Wine Region—according to them, this holds true for the entire Carpathian Basin: one of the best habitats on Earth, in the Creator’s palm.
Tastings, Feasts, Shows
All year, by appointment: cellar tours with wine tastings, oven‑baked wine gastronomy, demonstration hog butchering, wine snacks, unlimited food and drink, and dinner shows featuring the best wines of the Eger Wine Region.
