Upcoming events of 2026
42nd International Mineral Festival
One of the oldest and most popular events of the University of Miskolc is welcoming visitors for the 42nd time, inviting everyone interested in the hidden treasures of the Earth, dazzling minerals, gemstones, decorative stones, rocks, and fossils. The programs will be open to visitors over the course of two days.

Japanese mini-festival in University Town
The program includes an authentic Japanese tea ceremony, a Misodama-making workshop, and a Japanese language taster workshop. During the 30-minute mini-gastronomy lesson, participants can learn greetings to be used before and after meals, as well as Japanese expressions related to the taste of food.
Active participants can register in advance for the 30-minute workshops using the registration form. Participants will be assigned based on the time of registration, but the program can also be exciting for spectators.
The Japanese Culture Day will conclude with a feature film screening.
There will be a Hungarian interpreter at the event, so communication and dialogue will not be a problem for participants.
