AW Europe: Advidi’s Ultimate Guide To Budapest

h Budapest – The Pearl of the Danube, Paris of the East, the City of Spas!  Affiliate World Europe is rolling into town for the first time, and we’ve done our homework. We have explored every street, sampled every delicacy, inquired with every local and examined every Trustpilot review. All this to bring you the most comprehensive guide to the city you could ever hope for, so that if you do manage to slip out of the conference for a moment or two, you’ll know exactly where to go. Enjoy.

Inside The Conference

How To Make Your First Million In Affiliate Marketing | Attila Odri CMO Iamaffiliate | Thursday 5 Sep | 13:45

Straight off the bat, the title should be enough to make you attend this seminar. Attila’s book ‘From Zero to Super Affiliate’ is already a bible for swathes of affiliates out there, so you’d imagine there are more than a few nuggets in this 45 minute seminar, along with the Q&A at the end.

Riding the Scaling Wave: Mastering Affiliate Trends for Explosive Growth | Marcello Perazzani Co-Founder and GM, LeadxPro | Friday 6 Sep | 15:30

Since 2017 Marcello has succeeded in more than 30 different verticals across multiple traffic sources. Today, he’s leading an elite media buying team working with worldwide performance campaigns. In an industry where diversification is becoming increasingly important, this seminar is a must-see.

Affiliate Oktoberfest Networking Events | Friday 6 Sep | 17:30 – 20:30

This event sells itself. An epic closing party to finish off the conference. It’s an opportunity to unwind and have fun, but also to celebrate your achievements, solidify new connections, and toast to future successes. Cheers!

Advidi Sunset Party | The Duchess Rooftop Bar | Thurs 5 Sep | 17:30 – 21:00

Of course, it would be remiss of us not to mention our own event. We are hosting an exclusive rooftop party on Thursday, in one of the most amazing locations in the city. Watch the sun set over Budapest as you sip your cocktail, relax, meet old friends and make new ones. It’s all about good music, good vibes, and good people. This is an exclusive event, so get in contact with your AM to secure your ticket. See you there!

Outside The Conference

It’s Time To Eat 

Restaurant Rosenstein | If you want a real taste of Budapest, look no further. This is a traditional, family-run restaurant that has built a strong reputation for offering high-quality dishes, making it a spot where you’ll rub shoulders with both locals and tourists looking for authentic and hearty meals.

The ambience is cozy, unpretentious, and welcoming, and it’s everything you could want from a family restaurant. Due to its popularity, booking ahead is probably necessary. Delicious bowl of goulash anyone?

 

Szaletly | If you are looking for somewhere a bit more upmarket, perhaps to impress a client or get a deal over the line, Szaletly is the perfect spot. It’s classy, it’s elegant, it’s got a traditional menu with some impressive dishes.

A very short taxi from the conference, the restaurant is located across from the Stefánia Palace, which was built in the late 19th century and named after Princess Stefánia of Belgium, the wife of Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria-Hungary (regurgitate this fact on arrival to really wow your dinner companions). This is an impressive yet chill venue with an excellent menu and an even better wine list.

 

Chinatown | Budapest’s Chinatown is located just around the corner from HungExpo, where the conference is taking place, so if you have a particular soft spot for Asian cuisine and simply have to get your fix, you’re in luck. There is no shortage of tasty spots here, including Jin’s Delicates and In Town Hotpot.

 

Let’s Grab A Drink

Beer Garden Moments
Kertem | Located in Városliget, one of Budapest’s nicest parks, Kertem is a classic “kert” (garden) bar and is always a hot spot in the summer months. If you’re looking for somewhere near the conference to take a load off and enjoy good beer, good music and good weather, tucked away in some greenery, this is the spot for you. We don’t think it needs any more of a sell than that.

If You Love A Rooftop
360 Bar | Located towards the center of the city, 360 Bar ticks all the boxes.

  • Stunning panoramic view of the city – check
  • Amazing cocktails – check
  • DJs spinning record – check
  • Open late – check

It’s a great place to both get the night started by watching the sunset over the city, or end a night with one last cocktail and a boogie.

You Simply NEED To Dance
Peach and Cream Bar | If you’ve had enough of talking and you just want to dance the night away, hop in a taxi and head to the Peaches And Cream Club. It is a 20-minute ride from the conference center, but we promise you, you won’t be disappointed. What many call the ‘best club in Budapest’ will quench your party thirst.

 

Where to Explore

Hangover Cure
Széchenyi Thermal Baths | Looking to shake off the night before? This thermal bath is the place for you. Budapest is often referred to as the “City of Spas” because of its rich supply of natural thermal springs. Széchenyi has a wide range of indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, and wellness services It’s the closest major thermal bath to the conference location and one of the most grand in the city.

 

Take In Some Culture
Buda Castle District | If you are searching for something a little more cultural and wholesome to make you feel like you’ve actually visited Budapest, the Buda Castle District and in particular Castle Hill is what you are looking for. It is on the other side of the Danube River, but the half-hour taxi is worth it. The hill offers amazing views over the city, and is an UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with historic buildings, cobblestone streets, and medieval architecture. One for the history enthusiasts, it’s the perfect place to stroll around for an hour or 2 and get a sense of the medieval city.

 

You’re All Set!

It is simply impossible to have a bad time in Budapest, even if you only hit half of the spots we’ve recommended. And while you might be super excited to see what the city has to offer, it’s important to remember that there is actually an AW Conference you need to fit into your itinerary somewhere!

Get ready for a jam-packed 3 days, we’ll see you there at booth B23!
