Me and my partner went here and had the best time it was such a funny experience. For the price of the ticket it is great value for money you get a printed photo per person to keep. We was only in there for 45 mins to an hour but would recommend as a little stop off

This magnificent new-Renaissance style structure, completed in 1884 and modeled after the Vienna Opera House, is home to both the State Opera and the State Ballet.
Wonderful building and interior with great acoustic and superb performance by every member of the orchestra, opera singers, and dancers, stunning costumes, and choreography, what a wonderful evening!

Founded in 1875, the Liszt Academy is the only institution bearing the name of Ferenc Liszt in which the great composer himself had an active role in establishing. The university, which has been functioning for more than 140 years, is the bastion of music teaching and musicology in Hungary. The Grand Hall boasting unparalleled acoustics is a legendary concert venue in the Art Nouveau conservatory (1907) on Liszt Ferenc Square. Since its reconstruction in 2013, the institution has handled independent professional concert organizing activities and earned itself a reputation globally both as a university and a concert centre. In 2016, the Liszt Academy won the European Heritage Label for its outstanding role on the European music scene, for its preservation of European traditions, its creativity and openness worthy of the spirit of Ferenc Liszt, and for its dynamism springing from the duality of university and concert centre activities.
So much to enjoy in one open space. An art nouveau building with history and, as it turns out, great acoustics. We didn't have a tour but we walked around the public areas before and after attending a concert from a visiting orchestra. The organ was first played at the building's opening in the late 19th century by Franz Liszt himself. The acoustics were clear with just the right amount of reverb. Modern lighting makes the stage and performers look great. With a visiting orchestra from Belgium, our concert was very reasonably priced. A note about classical music in many European cities including Budapest, Prague, Vienna, and Venice, etc. There are plenty of nightly tourist performances with pieces you have heard - Pachelbel Canon, Dvorak New World Symphony, Vivaldi Four Seasons, etc. These performances are ok but generally overpriced. The performances that made these cities famous are found at the primary halls in the city. It pays to do your research and it pays to attend these performances to really experience what a classical concert is like. Before going search to see what's going on. There will be a long list of nightly performances - these are the tourist performances by freelance musicians for the most part. Like something? Go for it. No need to by in advance. But search on the cultural institutions of each city and then go directly to their sites to see if any performances are taking place while you're in town. The extra expense, if any, is well worth it.

This is a lovely narrow and long square with a beautifully maintained garden made up mostly of large trees with sculptures scattered here and there. Restaurants and cafes line the square. Special atmosphere.
