Cons
–
Zsolnay Quarter events aren't hugely famous internationally, so you might not spot them in US travel guides or hype them to friends back home.
–
Pécs flies under the radar for most American visitors who stick to Budapest—it's not a household name like Paris or Rome.
–
Locked to Monday, April 6, 2026 (Easter Monday), which could clash with US spring break timing or school schedules for families.
–
First-time Hungary trip means flying into Budapest anyway, adding a half-day of travel to get to Pécs versus super-central spots.
