23rd Gardália Tihany
23rd Gardália – November 14-16, 2025.
Tihany – Mádl Ferenc Square and the closed section of Kossuth Street
Tihany Saberfish Festival is more than just an event – it is Lake Balaton's fall festival, where the lake, fishing, and the past and present of the Tihany community come together.
For three days, everything revolves around fish from Lake Balaton:
- freshly fried delicacies,
- gourmet dishes served on ice,
- Lake Balaton wines,
- music, handicrafts, and a friendly atmosphere everywhere.
The HUN-REN Balaton Limnological Research Institute is preparing for an even more spectacular and informative presence this year – they help us understand what is happening in Lake Balaton today (and they also tell us where the saberfish is gone).
On Saturday, craft vendors fill the main street of Tihany, and on Sunday, cooking teams take over the square to ensure that there is no shortage of aromas and flavors!
Come and celebrate one of Lake Balaton's most beautiful traditions with us – the fish harvest, the community spirit, and the atmosphere of autumn!
