New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day are some of the busiest times in Budapest, Hungary. If you are enjoying your New Year break in Budapest and wonder if Szechenyi Baths and Pool are open in Budapest, we have good news. The opening hours will be like the opening times in the last decade in Szechenyi Baths.

New Year’s Opening Hours at Szechenyi Baths
December 30 opening hours: just one day before Dec 31, every year there is a huge pool party to celebrate the end of the year. So on Dec 30 the baths will be open as usual, 6 am – 10 pm. Then the baths reopen at 10.30 pm to let in the thousands of party folks who start to say farewell to the old year in a vibrant electronic disco party known as the Cinetrip Winter edition of the Sparty series. Great DJs, laser shows, performers by the pool, great atmosphere. Party tickets available here.

December 31 planned opening hours: Szechenyi Bath is open from 8 am to 6 pm on Dec 31. Check-in for online reservations: 9 am – 5 pm. Book a massage for the last day of the year weeks in advance, as massage treatments will be booked up by days before Dec 31. Soak in the baths, and enjoy some amazing days of your life in Budapest on Dec 31.
January 1 planned opening hours: Szechenyi Bath is open from 10 am to 8 pm on Jan 1. Check-in for online reservations: 10 am – 7 pm. Visiting Szechenyi Bath is a popular way to get over the New Year’s Eve party symptoms, so you may wish to buy your ticket online to get a fast track, hassle-free entry.

We are family of 3. my son is just 2 year and one month and we were planning to come for new year to Budapest. The only reason we will come is to visit your baths. As I can see children below 3 years are not allowed to come inside the pool but are they allowed to come for 30th Nye? Totally outside the pool.
If yes then is there any ticket charges for him? & what type of tickets are we supposed to take for two of us?
Kindly reply at the earliest as I would like to book today itself.
Is this open for January 13th?

Hi, i am planning to visit the baths on December 30th, however i can’t seem to pre-book from the website. Is it fully booked or can I visit on the day and pay there? thanks
Dear Jelena,
Thank you for your inquiry about services between Dec 24, 2019, and Jan 7, 2020 in the baths.
Due to the high number of visitors during the festive winter days, the thermal baths’ managerial decision was made that no fast track entries, cabins (changing cubicles) or massages are sold during these days.
Guests of day time visit will be checked in on a first-come-first-served basis. As long queues are expected there may be some lines waiting in the cold. Please find more details, advice and other thermal bath alternatives on the following link: BathsBudapest.com/Dec
Thank you for your kind cooperation. Enjoy the thermal baths in winter Budapest and explore some more if it is not your first visit in the city.
