The 35th Valley of Arts has reached its final full programme day. The anniversary festival, connecting Kapolcs, Taliándörögd and Vigántpetend, officially closes at dawn on 2 August, making 1 August the event's last full day. The official programme finder lists several hundred events for the day.

One of the festival's special side programmes is the Kapolcs trail run, which connects the cultural event with active tourism over 6km and 21.5km distances. The advance entry deadline is 1 August, and holders of a festival ticket or pass receive a discounted entry fee.

The festival therefore reaches not only concert and cultural audiences, but can also draw in runners, hikers, sports brands, health-conscious visitors and active-tourism providers. A sports programme can increase morning and late-morning attendance.

A further business advantage of the event, spread across three villages, is that visitor spending doesn't appear solely at a single festival hub.

Summary

On 1 August, the anniversary Valley of Arts reaches its final full programme day. Alongside cultural events, it also offers trail running and active tourism experiences.
