Hungexpo, Exhibition and congress center in Budapest, Hungary
Hungexpo is a large exhibition and congress center in Budapest, Hungary. It consists of several pavilions, a congress center, and reception halls set on a green campus with a central blue-glass entrance pavilion.
Annual agricultural shows have been held here since 1921. The Budapest International Fair moved here in 1974, and a major renovation took place between 2019 and 2021.
The name Hungexpo is a blend of 'Hungarian' and 'expo', reflecting its role as a national showcase. During events, the campus fills with visitors and the atmosphere is busy and international.
The site is large, so wear comfortable shoes and allow extra time to walk between halls. Most areas are accessible, and signs and staff help you find your way.
The congress center has a plenary hall with seats that can flatten or rise at the push of a button, a feature unique in Hungary. It also has the country's largest permanent LED wall, covering 72 square meters.
