The British Chamber of Commerce in Hungary is celebrating 35 fruitful years in Hungary at our annual Christmas Party on Monday, 14th December 2026, taking place at the exquisite Kimpton BEM Budapest Hotel.
We kindly invite our selected contacts to this elegant event, with an expected participation of well over 100 guests from our membership network, including a number of government representatives and members of the foreign diplomatic corps, quickly expanding, dynamic SMEs as well as C-level executives of well-known international companies, some of whom have been on board with the Chamber for the majority or indeed the entirety of our 35 years of existence.
This year our Chairman Mr Duncan Graham will also be joined by our guests of honour HMA Mr Justin McKenzie Smith, British Ambassador to Hungary and Dr Judit Zolnay, State Secretary at the Ministry of Economy and Energy who will open the event for the gathered guests.
As is tradition the event will include a reception, a fantastic Christmas cake, a prize draw and multiple other highlights currently being finalized. We hope this year’s Christmas Party will have plenty of moments for everyone attending to enjoy and remember wrapped in the welcoming, yet distinguished atmosphere, befitting of the status it has attained with its decades of continued success. Our main sponsors Tesco Magyarország is also bringing out their Finest collection to add to the festive atmosphere and supply us with top shelf quality snacks.
