National Gallop

Budapest. National Gallop

The National Gallop is a three-day celebration of Hungarian history, gastronomy and Hussar traditions.

In this spectacular riding competition held annually, over a hundred horses and riders from Hungarian towns and villages race round the Heroes Square and reconstruct the historic battle scenes.

Each participating town has a pavilion to introduce their settlement to public. Visitors are also treated to craft fair, folk music performances and traditional Hungarian cuisine.

The National Gallop is a free event. VIP tickets and tickets to grandstand (seated) are available from Ticket Express.
