OUR FAMILY ASSESSMENT

Family Intelligence

The Hall of Arts runs temporary exhibitions, and tickets are sold per exhibition, so prices and what you see change with the programme. On weekends, Family Days add exhibition-related activities for all ages, included in a same-day exhibition ticket. The one catch for visiting families is language: Family Days and the weekly children’s workshop are run in Hungarian only. Getting in with a wheelchair or stroller means using a staffed lift to the left of the main entrance staircase; the same lift goes down to the Mélycsarnok level, where there is a separate accessible toilet. The building opens later on Thursdays, which helps if your day is full of sightseeing elsewhere.
