How tasting works

Free entry, glass and tokens

KRAFT is not an unlimited tasting event. Admission is free, but anyone drinking beer needs a KRAFT-branded festival glass and tokens; tokens are the festival currency.

The organizer says BPBW and KRAFT glasses from previous years—and unused KRAFT tokens from earlier editions—remain valid. Prices and on-site availability can change, so check the official page before you go.

More than the taps

Local and regional breweries share the garden with free live shows, selectors and DJs, plus street-food vendors.

Use the live organizer page for the current brewery, music and food lists instead of relying on a copied schedule.

Budapest arrival planning

Plan the trip home before the first pour

Dürer Kert lists buses 33 and 133E and tram 1 via Hengermalom út / Szerémi út; night bus 901 is the late public-transport option named by the venue.

If your group prefers a fixed pickup, VanBudapest.com can coordinate a private chauffeur, Mercedes V-Class or Sprinter in Budapest. Never drive after drinking—use public transport, a designated sober driver or a prearranged ride.
