Dec 29, 2025 — Soul-Soothing Night

Léleksimogató — guided relaxation with live music and a culinary journey inspired by winter. Sometimes you have to step out of the grind, quiet the endless to-do lists, and turn inward. This evening is designed to recharge the soul, let the body recover, and create a quiet, attentive space to look more deeply into goals, feelings, and needs. It’s a carefully composed fusion: flavors embrace the body, sounds cradle the soul. The night opens with guided deep relaxation accompanied by crystal singing bowls, an immersive journey through sound and vibration where thoughts soften, the soul settles into quiet, and the body releases stress, suppressed emotions, and tension. Location: Tata.

Jan 2, 2026 — Winter Calm, Second Act

Léleksimogató returns with the same sensory blend: guided deep relaxation with crystal bowls and a winter-inspired culinary arc. More than a dinner, more than a relaxation session, it merges into a one-of-a-kind sanctuary for a tired soul. Location: Tata.

Jan 14, 2026 — SexEd: Cabaret for Adults

SzexEd: Kabaré felnőtteknek throws taboo into the spotlight with a sex-education cabaret for adults that asks what everyone wonders: How do you get there? How many times? Is every day too much? Is this okay? Is it normal if it hurts? How much hair is still acceptable? Zero tolerance? When do you bring out the condom? Expect cringe, candor, and comedy as the troupe navigates failures and pleasures alike. On stage: the hair demon, the hormone creature, the body-fluid spirit, the cringe gnome, the virgin ghost, the size squad, and leads Vasz and Bina. Location: Tata.

Feb 11, 2026 — Babylon Dossier with Andrea Fullajtár

Babilon dosszié — Andrea Fullajtár presents a singular camp diary and the fight to publish it in the Kádár era. Olga Galló would not yield; what she couldn’t say then is reborn as a deeply personal monodrama performed by her granddaughter, Andrea Fullajtár. The script draws from the manuscript of Galló’s Ten Months in Babylon (Tíz hónap Babilon) and her correspondence. Location: Tata.

Stay, Savor, Celebrate

The heritage-listed complex houses two tasteful, exclusive apartments—Kis Lilik and Nagy Lilik—set beside a glass-walled staircase on the first and second floors. Both suites face Tata’s Old Lake, a Ramsar-protected, uniquely European bird resting site. The twin restored mills along the shore host the Malom és Kacsa Boutique Hotel, Bistro, and Event House. Dive into flavors by the water, soak in the fairy-tale panorama, and feel the blend of past and present in the architecture and kitchen. Come for lunch or dinner, plan a date, watch the sunset with a plate, or stage life’s big moments and corporate gatherings here. Premium apartments deliver quiet comfort during events or a Tata getaway.

Organizers reserve the right to change dates and programs.

Pros
+
Family-friendly vibe at a scenic lakeside venue, with plenty of food, sunsets, and mellow events that work for multi‑gen groups, even if some shows skew adult
+
Unique sensory experiences (guided relaxation with crystal bowls + chef-driven menus) you won’t easily find back home in this exact combo
+
Easy add-on to a Hungary trip: Tata is a pretty small city with Old Lake views, and the venue also has boutique lodging, so it’s a neat all-in-one stop
+
No deep Hungarian knowledge needed for the relaxation nights and foodie parts; staff at a popular bistro-hotel often manage in basic English
+
Feels authentic and local rather than touristy, so you get a real slice of Hungarian culture in a compact setting
+
Reachable by car from Budapest in about an hour and by train to Tata plus a short taxi/ride-share, so logistics are manageable
+
Prices and crowd sizes are likely gentler than big-city cultural nights, making it low-stress for visitors
Cons
The cabaret (SexEd) and the monodrama rely on Hungarian language and local humor/history, so non-speakers may miss most of it
Tata and Malom és Kacsa aren’t internationally famous, so you’ll need to plan more and set expectations with kids about calmer, culture-forward evenings
Public transport the last mile may require taxis/walking, and winter weather can make late-night returns a bit tricky
Compared with major wellness retreats or dinner-theater in the U.S., production scale is smaller; it’s about intimacy over spectacle
