Children’s Programs

The Wine Festival offers entertainment and relaxation for families with small children too. Between 11am-5pm on Saturday and Sunday the little ones and their parents are invited to the Oroszlános Courtyard to the BABÓ arts and crafts workshop preparing for autumn.

Learn about the ancient and modern methods of felt making, make creative handprints, cork figurines and key chains, paint and draw. Naturally, adults are invited to join in too. Children can become real festival-goers with face painting on these two days. While kids are learning whilst playing, adults can ask experts about developing their children’s skills.

The program is supported by Babó Gyermekközpont.
