This year’s Critical Mass
event to be held on the 20th of April in celebration of the Earth Day is expected to be enormous with the route on both sides of the Danube.

The Critical Mass held in Budapest twice a year since 2004 attracts now more and more cyclists and supporters thus showing to the public and the authorities that biking is healthy, clean and cheap. On the last year’s Earth Day Budapest had the largest Critical Mass event in history with around 50,000 cyclists participating.

Recently opened Jelen, a nice addition to the Budapest nightclub and bar scene, is quickly gaining popularity among both locals and travelers by word of mouth alone.

This spacious bar subtly decorated with arty posters opens every day at 4 pm, just when you are almost done with your job and errands and ready to have a pint.

On February 23-27th the Treehugger Dan's Bookstore Cafe & Lounge will have the all day Spring Cleaning Book Sale.

This second-hand bookshop will offer hundreds or even thousands of books 350 forint each or 3 for 1000. There will be a few big tables set up for you to browse through this weekend.

Kunk, the monthly indie/electro/bad pop party, is straying slightly from typical form for its February edition. On Saturday, February 16 at Trafo Bar, the spotlight is shifted onto Budapest-based art/fashion/culture/music blogs for a special "2ManyBloggas' night.

In addition to the normal DJ shenanigans, the evening will be punctuated by a live performance of sorts, taking place upon a 'circle of lust'. Within the circle, each participating blog, represented either by a contributor or someone else they pick, will model an item that the blog lusts after hence the name. The result will be a kind of stationary fashion show, except without boundaries, as the items needn't be clothes: they can be works of art, a gadget, a photo in a frame, or simply an individual who they feel embodies what the blog is trying to shed light upon.
