Live Webcast, the new, increasingly popular service introduced by the Palace of Arts this year, makes its final broadcast of the season on 24 June 2011. On this occasion, visitors of Müpa’s homepage can join the Karaván Família, widely known as a Roma (Gypsy) folk band regularly experimenting with mixed genres and diverse musical styles, on their escapade among a variety of genres.
More...Tickets and season tickets are available from 4 June 2011 for the 2012 performances of the Wagner in Budapest Opera Festival.

More...The most prestigious and longest running organ festival in Germany (the Internationale Orgelwoche Nürnberg ION) is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year. Previous winners of the organ competition are Europe’s leading organists by now, who – almost without exception – laid the foundations of their careers with the prize they won in Nuremberg. The fact that the first time the top prize was awarded to a Hungarian organist in the history of the competition is especially pleasing in the Year of Liszt, 2011.
More...On 26th May a press conference was held by the Palace of Arts about the Wagner in Budapest Opera Festival. Some of the highlights of the festival, held between 4th and 19th June, is the premiere of Lohengrin on 9th June (and further two performances on 12th and 18th June), which was recently added to the repertoire and staged jointly with the Hungarian State Opera, as well as the adaptation of the musical piece for children entitled The Swan Knight, with its world premiere on 4th June and another performance on 5th June.
More...We kindly inform our guests that the performance Musical Saint Petersburg planned for 2 June has been cancelled.
