A full cultural and community calendar is rolling out across multiple venues in Veszprém (8200) in 2026, blending exhibitions, concerts, family and children’s programs, guided tours, themed walks, educational talks, red-letter-day celebrations, and church events. It’s a citywide invitation to connect, learn, and celebrate throughout the year.
Biblical Role-Play for Kids
Back by popular demand, the biblical role-play series welcomes children aged 7–10 for a two-hour Sunday afternoon program focused on building social skills and emotional intelligence. Sessions run 3:30–5:30 p.m. at the Archbishop’s Office, Gizella Hall, 8200 Veszprém, Jutasi út 18/2. Dates: February 15, March 1, March 15, March 29, April 12, and April 26. Kids dive into stories together, take on characters, and practice empathy, teamwork, listening, and problem-solving in a warm, supportive setting. Parents can expect a consistent rhythm over six Sundays, all in the same central venue.
Marriage Preparation Course
Couples planning a life together can sign up for the Marriage Preparation Course (Jegyeskurzus) in Veszprém, held at Padányi School, Szeghlety J. Street 6. This practical, candid, faith-informed course equips engaged couples for marriage and family life. Core themes include:
– The spirituality of marriage
– The family we come from
– Relationship communication and conflict management
– Intimacy in marriage
– Male–female differences and common pitfalls
– Parenting and family life
Sessions are scheduled across several Fridays: February 20, February 27, March 6, and March 13. Expect honest conversations, tools for navigating friction, and guidance for nurturing connection—plus space to reflect on expectations, values, and everyday routines that make a household work.
Wine Tasting for Married Couples
As part of the nationwide Marriage Week (Házasság Hete), married couples are invited to an intimate evening of pair tasting at Gizella Hotel and Restaurant (Veszprém, Jókai Mór Street 48). Date and time: February 11, 6:00 p.m. The event is free, but places are limited and require registration. In a friendly, elegant setting, guests sample a curated selection of wines from the Veszprém Archdiocese, with a focus on slowing down, savoring conversation, and rediscovering shared rhythms. It’s about stepping out of the daily rush and toasting to attention, presence, and the small joys best enjoyed together.
Spring Highlights and Concerts
Beyond the recurring programs, spring brings standout musical moments. On April 15, organ virtuosos Martin Baker and Tamás Kéméndi team up for a joint concert—expect a program rich in color, technique, and liturgical resonance, with an ear for both tradition and bold textures. Then on May 28, János Pálúr presents Creation Story (Teremtéstörténet), an evocative musical journey that folds theological imagination into contemporary concert experience. Exact venues and times for these later events will be announced; keep an eye on updates.
Plan, Check, Go
With 18 listings tallied so far and multiple locations in play, it’s wise to double-check dates, times, and any last-minute changes. Organizers reserve the right to alter programs and schedules, so confirm details before you head out. Whether you’re guiding a child through a story, preparing for marriage, or catching a rare concert pairing, Veszprém’s 2026 lineup is set to make Sundays, Fridays, and select weeknights count.
