It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of The Budapest Week, the first independent English-language newspaper in Budapest.

Founded in 1991, Budapest Week served as a vital resource for the city’s expatriate and English-speaking population for over two decades. The paper provided a unique perspective on Hungarian news, culture, and events, catering to the needs of the international community in Budapest.

We at Budapest Week are saddened by the loss of Budapest Week. It was a publication that played a significant role in bridging the gap between Budapest’s Hungarian and international communities. We commend Budapest Week for its dedication to serving its readership and for its contribution to Budapest’s vibrant cultural scene.
