The magazine’s feature story ‘BUD: The Gateway to the World’ presents Budapest’s Ferenc Liszt International Airport as you’ve never seen it before. There’s a renovated runway with a state-of-the-art navigation system and a new 220-metre-long, three-level pier capable of receiving wide-body aircraft, with ten new air bridges. The construction of the Cargo City facility is underway and plans for a new parking structure in front of Terminals 2A and 2B are also in the works — Ferenc Liszt International Airport continued to expand this summer. Budapest’s international airport has a 75-year history that has seen continuous and dynamic development. With its multi-faceted services, it is not just a passenger and logistics centre for the capital and Hungary, but is also one of the most important in the region. The decision regarding a possible Terminal 3 will be made soon and by 2020 the large-scale development programme should be completed. Hungarian and world premieres, as well as exciting outdoor programmes, will all feature during the CAFe Budapest Contemporary Arts Festival. With defining figures from the contemporary arts scene such as Ólafur Arnalds, Sinfonietta Rīga, The King’s Singers, Dean Brown, the Recirquel Contemporary Circus Company and Peeping Tom from Belgium, every genre will be well represented this autumn across the city. The events for one of the region’s most important comprehensive arts festivals will take place from 5-21 October, with some held in special locations such as on a boat, in a café, at the circus, and in an art workshop that was converted from a manufacturing plant. The magazine also has recommendations to discover the young but already notable wine region of Etyek, as well as the nearby Korda Filmpark in its monumental proportions. It also features the new Hotel Meininger Budapest, soon to open in the immediate proximity of the Central Market Hall, becoming the first Hungarian addition to the German hotel chain this Autumn.
