About us

Got a free evening, or no idea what to do this weekend, but no wish to spend hours searching?

You no longer have to dig through websites and social media: Mi a program? (Hungarian for "What's on?") collects what's on in Budapest in one place, every day 🙂

Who is behind it?

Hi! I'm Roland Pokornyik, a sporty forty-something, husband and father of two. For more than ten years I have been running a Hungarian software company that makes building HTML emails easier for thousands of marketers.

Besides work, music and sport are a big part of my life. I played bass in amateur bands for many years and wrote a concert blog for a while. Back then it was easy to find out what was on in the city, but that has completely faded. That's why I started Mi a program?: so that neither you nor I have to browse venue websites or social media one by one. For now I focus on Budapest venues, and later I'd love to add other Hungarian cities too.

If you have an idea, found a mistake, or just want to say hi, write to me.

Hi! I'm Luca Pokornyik, a secondary school student. I listen to all kinds of music, play bass guitar and, according to my dad, love "scrolling". Since I spend a lot of time on social media, my dad couldn't have found a better Social Media Manager than me. I'm still new to this, but I'm not afraid of a challenge.

When Dad first showed me Mi a program?, I was pretty sceptical, but I really liked it and immediately felt I had to step in, because as a boomer he is not so much into the pulse of social media anymore. Since the site launched I want to go to even more places, because it turns out there are loads of cool events in the city I never knew about 🙂

How does it work?

We collect events every day from the venues' websites and ticket pages. Every event shows its source, and you always buy tickets on the venue's own site. We write short descriptions ourselves and never copy photos or long texts.

Event titles are translated automatically, so a translation may occasionally be imperfect; the original Hungarian title is shown on every event page. Most performances are in Hungarian unless stated otherwise, and dates or prices can change: always check the venue's page before you go.

Are you a venue?

If your venue is missing or a detail is wrong, write to us (hello@miaprogram.hu) and we will fix it within one working day. If you would rather not be listed, we remove the venue and its events within one working day.

Contact: hello@miaprogram.hu. The site is operated by Gamma Partners Kft. (2336 Dunavarsány, Temesvár utca 29. C. ép., Hungary, company reg. no.: 13-09-233744, tax no.: 32546044-1-13).
