Budapest Jazz Club

Just off the Grand Boulevard in the Újlipót neighbourhood, Budapest Jazz Club brings the best in local and international jazz to the Hungarian capital. You enter this converted cinema space through a cosy bar and bistro area with art deco accents and a warm red hue (plus a very decent menu). Inside, the auditorium draws big jazz, blues and world music names, with gigs from Tuesday to Sunday covering everything from bossa nova to big band. Come on Wednesdays, Fridays or Saturdays after the main event for free jam sessions featuring up-and-coming musicians from around Budapest.
