This Halloween, the Danube turns dark as the Danube Beat Boat Party: Pirates Apocalypse Halloween Special takes over Budapest’s waters for a night of costumes, chaos, and all-night dancing. It’s part haunted house, part pirate ship, and part all-out rave, making it one of the most unique Halloween parties in the city.

The Halloween Setting
After the has sun set, you’ll board a fully transformed Halloween party boat decked out with spooky décor, eerie lighting, and a sea of costumed partygoers ready to dance under the stars. The backdrop? Budapest’s illuminated skyline - Parliament glowing gold, bridges lit up, and the Danube sparkling in the moonlight. It’s the ultimate setting for a Halloween night you won’t forget.

The Music & Entertainment
Our live DJs will deliver a mix of house, dance, and party anthems designed to keep the energy high all night long. Expect spine-tingling drops, pirate-themed madness, and plenty of beats to make the dancefloor come alive. The vibe builds as the cruise sails down the river before returning to port and boarding the PartyBus taking you to the after party.

Drinks & Bar Service
The onboard bars will keep your cup full with beer, wine, spirits, mixers, and themed Halloween cocktails to fuel the night’s adventures. Whether you’re sipping something spooky or sticking to the classics, drinks will be flowing from start to finish.
