New party district to be built on the outskirts of Budapest
Posted by Budnews · Jul 29, 2016

When it comes to entertainment and relaxation, there is almost no wish Budapest can’t fulfill. Unfortunately, however, the beach facility falls into this category. Or fell, until now.

If you wish lakeside summer experience in Hungary, you have to go to Lake Balaton, while for a huge party, the best place is the party district in Budapest. But what if you want both? The owner and founder of Sziget Festival came out with the solution: Károly Gerendai rented the neglected Lake Lupa and the surrounding area for 20 years. In his new project he’s going to build something like the party district, but on the shore of the lake! The already popular suburban lake (it’s situated in the north agglomeration of Budapest) is about to become an entire season long festival. If the new project is going to have only half the success of Sziget Festival back then, we can’t wait to see!

Although it was forbidden to swim in the lake until this year, it was a popular bathing place among inhabitants. And from next year, it will be really exclusive too. Gerendai decided to install everything cool on the shore. Thus, the townspeople can (legally) enjoy bathing in the summer season in an environment that is easily accessible by bike or car, and goes far beyond the services of other beaches. The area is nearly one hundred acres and more than half a kilometer long, thus it’s a perfect place to relax. The water and its shore is perfectly clean and has a lot of untapped potential.

If you get really excited for now, we have to warn you: the Lake Lupa project is just a test run this year, but the farther plans contain 3 more beaches, several clubs and bars. This may become reality for next year, and the ultimate goal is to make a second party district to the city. There will be everything you can imagine: white sand beach, volleyball and football court, opportunity to rent a boat, kayak or canoe, dog beach, diving activities, water skiing course and even nudists get a big and beautiful coastline. Moreover, even fishing will be allowed, so it is promised to be a pretty cool place. But yet, the beach is only open on a small area on a trial basis. For curious people, we recommend Lake Lupa already now, but those who wish real luxury experience we’d say to wait for the big opening next summer.
