Azahriah Budapest

Azahriah is a very popular singer and songwriter in Hungary. He has become incredibly popular in a short time, but due to hard work and diligence. It caught many by surprise, but as they planned to arrange an Azahriah concert in Puskas Arena in May 2024, all tickets were sold out at an incredible pace. What did they do? They added more concerts. As a result, there will be three Azahriah concerts in Puskas Arena in May 2024.

The last weekend of May will be an incredible Azahriah weekend in Budapest. On Friday, May 24, the first concert is held, followed by a second concert on May 25, and the final concert on May 26 (Sunday). Would you like to be there at one of them to see this Hungarian celebrity? He sings mostly in Hungarian, but you will for sure enjoy the atmosphere if you decide to be among the approximately 35,000 people at any of the concerts. The venue itself is worth a visit the fantastic Puskas Arena. This is where the Hungarian national team in football plays its matches, and it is also where Coldplay and Ed Sheeran will perform later during the summer of 2024. Doesn’t that sound cool? Did you suddenly get several reasons to come to Budapest in 2024?

Since all tickets were sold out quickly for all the concerts, the only option if you want to be there at one of the Azahriah concerts is to buy tickets from others. Be careful in the process, as some people sell tickets at much higher prices than what it’s worth, so look around and use common sense in the process.

Questions about Budapest and the Azahriah concert.

Do you have any hotel recommendations near Puskas Arena?

Puskas Arena is approximately 2km from the Danube, a little bit outside the popular tourist areas. As a result, many people who come for the Azahriah concert decide to live in the city center and then travel to Puskas Arena for the concert, instead of living close to Puskas Arena, and then traveling to the city center whenever they want to explore the popular attractions of Budapest or visit a nice restaurant. You can fully decide for yourself. Below, you can see a map showing hotels and apartments close to Puskas Arena. Would you rather live in the city center, closer to the attractions, activities, museums, and restaurants in Budapest?

How can I travel to Puskas Arena?

It is very easy. Buy a ticket for public transportation in Budapest and travel with the red metro to the stop named Puskas Ferenc Stadion. From there you can walk to the arena within five minutes.

Is Azahriah popular outside Hungary as well?

During the autumn of 2023, he had concerts in Vienna, Prague, Warsaw, Berlin, and Köln. In other words, he is getting more and more popular outside the borders of Hungary, but the majority of his fans are Hungarians (still).

Ed Sheeran concert in Budapest 2024

Ed Sheeran last visited Budapest in 2019 when he performed at the Sziget Festival. In 2024, he once again came to the Hungarian capital to perform at the Puskas Arena. To make things even better, he isn’t coming alone, but he is coming together with Calum Scott. Would you like to be there at Puskas Arena to enjoy one of the highlights on the calendar in Budapest in 2024?

The Ed Sheeran concert is set to July 20, 2024. The venue is Puskas Arena, meaning that there will be more than 60,000 people present to listen and sing along with Ed Sheeran. What makes this even cooler is the fact that Ed Sheeran will only do a few concerts during the summer of 2024, and Budapest is one of the lucky cities to be on the list. In other words, this is one of few chances to listen to the artist live in 2024.

The tickets for the Ed Sheeran concert is laid out for sale in Hungary on October 26 at 10:00, and the tickets are expected to be sold ut within a few hours. If you are reading this much later, you can most likely expect all the tickets to be sold out. As a result, the only way to be there at the corner arena is to buy a ticket second-hand before the concert outside the arena, or by buying tickets online at a second-hand ticket site. If that sounds interesting, use the link further down in the article.

Ed Sheeran Budapest 2024

Date: July 20, 2024
Location: Puskas Arena

Tickets: Viagogo (a marketplace where you can buy tickets for all the Ed Sheeran tickets worldwide)

How to get to the concert venue?

Would you like to be there at the Ed Sheeran concert in Budapest? It is easy to travel to the venue with public transportation. The nearest metro station is Puskas Ferenc Stadion (red line). From there, you can walk to the venue within 5 minutes.

If you arrive by car, you can park your car in the streets around the venue, but it will most likely be extremely hard to find a free parking lot before the start of the concert. As a result, you can try to park your car in the popular mall named Arena Plaza which is close to the venue. Another option is to park elsewhere in the city and then use the metro to get to the venue.

Are there any good accommodation opportunities near Puskas Arena?

Would you like to live in a hotel or apartment close to Puskas Arena? It can be ideal, not only for the concert but also because it is easy to get to the city center using the metro within a few minutes.

How much time do I need to travel from the airport to Puskas Arena?

Are you flying to Budapest only to see and experience the Ed Sheeran concert? Are you worried that you might arrive too late? How much time do you need to travel between the airport in Budapest and the Ed Sheeran concert at Puskas Arena?

If you arrive at the airport and have a taxi waiting for you (or if you jump in the first and best cab you can find), then you should expect the travel time to the arena to be approximately 30 minutes. Since the concert is quite late, there shouldn’t be any delays due to traffic, but if you calculate 45 minutes from the airport to the stadium, you should definitely arrive according to plan.

What other cities will Ed Sheeran visit during the summer of 2024?

We don’t know everything yet, but as of right now, it seems as if Ed Sheeran will perform in Lucca (Italy), Gdansk (Poland), Hradec Karlove (Czech Republic), Zagreb (Croatia), and Kaunas (Lithuania) besides Budapest (Hungary).

How can Hungary get to the European Championship in football in 2020?

Posted on February 12, 2020August 9, 2023 by Budapest Guide

After their somewhat big success during the European Championship in football in 2016, the Hungarians are hungry for more. The fact that three matches during the European Championship actually will be played in Hungary, makes it even more interesting. But, how can the Hungarians get to the European Championship in football?

The legendary Hungarian footballer Ferenc Puskas has given name to the biggest football stadium in Hungary. It has recently been renovated, making it a fantastic arena for big football matches. And believe us, this will be an arena for awesome matches during the European Championship, with or without the Hungarians. How come?

The group that will play three matches at the Ferenc Puskas stadium consists of three teams so far; France, Portugal, and Germany. The matches in this group will be played in Germany and in Hungary, meaning that there will for sure be a match between France and Portugal at the stadium during the championship. That is gonna be wild! But, is there a chance that we can see the Hungarians at the stadium as well during the European Championship?

How and when can the Hungarians get to Euro 2020?

The Hungarians still have the chance to qualify, because of the new Nations League system. But, they still have two matches left that they need to win, and neither of those should be considered easy matches.

First of all, on March 26th, they need to beat the Bulgarian square in Bulgaria. The match will start at local time 20.45. Even though the Bulgarian team is a good team, this is a task that they might manage, at least if they have a good day.

The first play-off matches for Euro 2020

If the Hungarians win against Bulgaria on March 26th, the final task will be on March 31st against the winner of the match between Romania and Iceland. As we all know, this sounds quite a bit harder, and both the Icelandic squad and the Romanian squad are a couple of levels up from the quality of the Bulgarian players.

But, if we go back four years in time, we also know that the Hungarians are capable of playing very well under pressure (as when they won against Norway in their two play-off matches in order to get to the European Championship in 2016 in France). So, nothing is impossible. But, there will for sure be some tough moments in order for the Hungarians to get that far!

How to watch the Hungarian matches online?

The matches in which Hungary will play, first against Bulgaria, and then hopefully, against the winner of the Romania/Iceland match, can be streamed on M4 in Hungary. This is a free channel in Hungary, but it can also be accessed quite easily from abroad.

If you want to know more about how you can stream the actual European Championship in football online, click the link for more information. Hopefully, that will be a tournament in which the Hungarians will be present and ready to play against France, Germany, and Portugal.

I don’t believe they will have much of a chance if they actually get there, but it would be amazing to see the players present. And as they managed to surprise and win the group in 2016 (which also consisted of Portugal, Iceland, and Austria), they might be able to grab some points in the Euro 2020, even if their opponents will be Portugal, Germany, and France!

Do not forget, we can help you with lots of programs if you come to Hungary to watch the European Championship in football. We can pick you up at the airport, arrange a delicious beer dinner, or maybe let you enjoy a wine tasting program? Look around in our Budapest Guide for even more information!

Depeche Mode Budapest 2013

Posted on October 29, 2012August 2, 2022 by Budapest Guide

Depeche Mode has been to Budapest several times since the band was formed in England in 1980, and their last concert was in January 2010. They also visited Budapest in the summer of 2009, but where is that? It is far behind in history, and we know that lots of people are very pleased to hear that the band known to be the most popular Electronic music band on the planet will return to Budapest again in 2013. The concert date for this Budapest event is May 21st and it will start at 20.00.

The Depeche Mode tour in 2013 starts in Tel Avis in Israel in the start of May, but we know that in lots of cities the Depeche Mode concerts will be arranged indoor. But, in Budapest it will be 30,000-40,000 people at the concert as the venue is the largest football arena in Hungary, the Puskas Ferenc Stadium. It will be crowded and a wonderful atmosphere. I dare say that this will probably be the most popular concert in Budapest and Hungary in all of 2013. Quite some years ago we wrote an article about the most popular concerts in Budapest throughout history (based on ticket sales from the biggest ticket sales company in Hungary), and they placed Depeche Mode on the top of their list, so expect it to be crowded.
