The oldest harvest festival in the region – it started in 1932.  Processions, traditional clothes and music – the town of Tokaj celebrates the Harvest Fest (Tokaj-hegyaljai Szüreti Napok). Festivities throughout the weekend include winemakers and a market along the main street, as well as music in the main square, where popular Hungarian bands take the stage. CatchMagna Cum Laude and Saint Marten for example.

For a more personal take, visit the winemakers at their cellars – to taste the wines in situ. A couple of recommendations perhaps? Dobogó, Hétszőlő, Hímesudvar, Paulay and Sauska, plus the Tokaj Coffee Roasting Company, and LaBor Bistro on the main square for a wide variety from guests tastings (wine to jams), music and exhibitions!
