Budapest Wagner Days
A double helping of the Ring to mark a double anniversary: we are celebrating two significant Wagnerian milestones at the Budapest Wagner Festival in 2026. It has been 150 years since the entire Ring tetralogy was first heard at the Bayreuth Festival – and with a Hungarian, János Richter, conducting – and visitors to the festival at Müpa Budapest have been enjoying the incomparable atmosphere of Hungary’s Wagner fiesta for 20 years.
