Food, dance, art, music, and mouth-watering
sampling of Hungarian Cuisine!
This year's special guest is the world-renowned Hungarian folk band: "Heveder,"
with professional folk dancers Florián Hajdú and Irén Deffend, performing and
teaching traditional Hungarian dances!
You think you have the best Gulyas recipe- (beef stew cooked over open flames)?!
JOIN the competition in the Gulyas Cook-off!
At the heart of the Hungarian tradition are customs that celebrate life with delectable food, festive music, and dance, as well as a renowned hospitality amongst family and friends.
Featured at the festival is a large sampling of the Hungarian kitchen which includes the bottomless gulyas pot, home made sausages, mititei, crêpes, kürtöskalács (rolled sweet dough), lángos (elephant ears), homemade pastries, and a lot more!
In addition, our festival provides a safe and fun children's area complete with games, face painting, and other fun activities to keep the kids entertained. The Hungarian Scout Troop of Chicago will also be there to provide interesting traditional cultural activities for children of all ages!
Our community extends an invitation for everyone to come join your friends and family and celebrate all things Hungarian with us!
