How did a historic bathhouse become the site for a special after-hours party with strobe lights and electronic dance music? Here’s all you need to know about the origins of the Budapest Bath Party.
The concept of hosting a party in a thermal bath was the brainchild of Laszlo L. Laki. The first of its kind Sparty was held in the Szechenyi Baths for a private group of the organizers’ friends. The idea took off and from 1998, regular Sparties were organized for the public. What sets bath parties in Budapest apart from other late-night events, is the unique music and visual effects that tint the historic site with fresh charm. To add to this, the video projection mapping is a sight that is wondrous to behold. This is the 21st century’s newest visual genre and its special projection technology makes use of surrounding objects as a screen to display the projection like buildings and walls. Although the Budapest Bath Parties were originally held in Lukács Baths, the venue was permanently shifted to the more spacious Széchenyi Baths in 2018, to cater to the surging popularity of the Sparty events.
