Looking for a real-life jungle adventure? The National Bird Show is spreading its wings at Lurdy House (Lurdy Ház) in Budapest from October 24 to 26, 2025. This vibrant bird festival transforms the venue into a whistling, feathered wonderland, bringing together hundreds of parrots, cockatoos, canaries, lorikeets, and all sorts of exotic birds from every continent.
Birds, Beauty, and Ballots
It’s not just about staring in awe—visitors get to vote for their favorites in the international bird beauty contest. Alongside a panel of expert judges, anyone can help decide which parrot or cockatoo will be crowned the fairest of them all. And if you’re feeling brave, giant macaws are waiting for your close-up; snap a photo with one perched on your arm!
Family Fun in the Urban Jungle
Kids are in for a treat, with creative workshops like T-shirt painting and other hands-on activities, all while learning about responsible pet care. With birds and family programs at the heart of the event, it’s an experience designed for feather fans and wildlife newcomers alike.
Door times vary by day, so buy tickets online to skip the lines and soak in the magic of nature’s wildest colors right in the city.
