Debrecen is back in the spotlight! For the fourth time, the Made in Debrecen festival will be held in the heart of the city.

For the first time in 2022, the city centre hosted the Made in Debrecen festival, modelled on the Pécs festival, which will entertain visitors with free concerts for a whole day. A total of nine city-centre bars will host locally-connected performers and bands on the 29th of March. Each of the venues will be accompanied by a supporting character,  linked to the genre of the venue, and the organisers have already published the "mascots". The nine characters reveal the attributes of each genre, from the most popular styles to alternative, mainstream and underground, acoustic and electronic. The figures can be found on Made in Debrecen's Facebook page, and everyone can vote for their favourite with a like.    Date: 29 March Location: various locations across Debrecen Source and photo credit: dehir.hu

Borsos József 150 Exhibition Opens

József Borsos Sqaure József Borsos Sqaure, Debrecen, Hungary

Within the commemorative year on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the birth of József Borsos, the former chief architect of the “cívis” city, the Borsos József 150 exhibition will open on the 9th of April. The Borsos-villa Community House of the DEMKI also joined the series of events for the significant anniversary, as the villa he designed was also the home of József Borsos. He jokingly called the two-story building, which once stood out among the single-story houses on the suburban street, an “old-garden cottage”.  The curator, director and opening person of the exhibition presenting Borsos' architectural legacy is architect Zoltán Rácz, the most knowledgeable expert on Borsos's oeuvre. Several buildings in Debrecen commemorate József Borsos, whose life's work the city pays tribute to with a series of programmes throughout the year. Date: 9 April, 4.00 p.m. Location: DEMKI Borsos-villa Community House, 1 Borsos József Square Sources: dehir.hu, Facebook  

Lenten Concert at the Great Church

Great Reformed Church Piac u. 4-6, Debrecen, Hungary

In the silence of Lent, the Kodály Choir Debrecen's concert entitled “Light and Shadow” offers masterpieces to be discovered, taking us to incredible depths and heights.  Louis Vierne, who lived his life almost completely blind, promises a richness of colour in his celebratory Mass of late French Romanticism. Originally a work for two organs, Zsigmond Szathmáry has created a single-organ version of the work, presenting the performer with a serious challenge. The work by one of the world's most popular living composers, Estonian Arvo Pärt, is a poignant treatment of the lamentations of the penitent Adam, which speaks in the pure language of spiritual minimalism. The choir, led by Zoltán Kocsis-Holper, with organist Dániel Sárosi and members of the Kodály Philharmonic, evokes the depth of the Lenten sacrifice and the coming Easter light.
