Budapest is set to host the tenth annual Sólet Festival on August 30 at Városháza Park. Organized by EMIH, the event acts as the opening ceremony for Synagogue Week.

The festival focuses on traditional Jewish cuisine through contemporary gastronomic programs, featuring four distinct versions of sólet: a Hungarian version with smoked beef and goose, an Israeli version with beef and cumin, a Hegyalja version using goose fat, and a street food version served in warm pita. The program will also include cultural performances from various artists and an Israeli DJ.
