Back in 2010, Otkert opened its doors for the first time in a 19th-century building. Surrounded by the vintage appeal of the building’s walls, this vibrant nightclub features a retractable roof. 

Yes, you got that right – when the summeresque season hits, Otkert morphs into an open-air venue.

The clubbing mecca boasts a diverse music repertoire

Spanning three rooms, it comes as no surprise that Otkert uses its generous space to satisfy the musical needs of every clubber passing through its doors.

While some areas are all about everything that’s pop-soaked – from nostalgic 80s hits to commercial mash-ups – others blast the music genre that Otkert is known for – hip-hop. For tech-house aficionados, the Secret Room delivers the finest EDM beats. 

Hip-hop lovers, you are always in luck at Otkert

While Otkert is loyal to no music genre, it is widely viewed as Budapest‘s go-to spot when in the mood for some hip-hop beats.

On most nights, your ears will witness the finest hip-hop sounds and R&B songs that won’t keep your feet in one place. 

But bear in mind, this doesn’t happen all night long. Even though Otkert Budapest is a fanatic for everything hip-hop and R&B, the club’s speakers are all about musical diversity.

Otkert strikes a balance between fresh talent and established names

Since diversity is part of Otkert’s ethos, it is only natural that both local and international DJs take over its audio decks. Various artists graced the iconic venue with their skillful spinning, delivering one-of-a-kind clubbing experiences to Budapest’s music devotees.

Electronic band GusGus, iconic duo Catz ‘N Dogz, record producer Route 94, and musical trio Kraak & Smaak have all kept the night going at Otkert.

But the Budapest nightclub doesn’t stop at international names – famous Hungarian DJs like Viktoria Metzker and Daniel Karanyi are also part of the picture. 

It is both an indoor and open-air club

During warmer seasons, the Budapest nightclub beats the heat through its unique selling point – the retractable roof.

As soon as the roof above the main floor opens up, Otkert transforms into an alfresco clubbing destination.

Thanks to its smart design, not only that you dance beneath the starry night sky, but no weather forecast will ruin your clubbing session.

Dress up if you don’t want to be turned down

Want to join the party? Make sure you obey the law of the land, AKA the dress code. Although most Budapest clubs don’t enforce a specific clothing type and encourage you to dress as casual as you want, Otkert feels slightly different about that.

If your worst fear translates into getting asked to step aside, avoid everything that’s sportswear related (yes, sleeveless jerseys are included), punk clothing, and open slippers.

Ötkert Budapest features multiple dance floors and a terrace

Apart from the many dance floors available at Ötkert Budapest, guests can access a spacious terrace.

If you need a proper time-out after many hours of dancing, this is the place to be – so take a boozy drink, take a moment to breathe and marvel at the jaw-dropping surroundings.

Ötkert Budapest displays an eye-catching interior

Striking a good balance between disco and exotic, Otkert is home to a creative interior design. We are not necessarily talking about the venue’s vintage appeal – we’re more about the massive disco ball and suspended plant pots. 

The Budapest clubbing mecca is an award-winning club

It is not a secret that Otkert is one of Budapest’s most lusted-after clubbing destinations. But no status is well-founded without some award validation.

The venue has been considered an indispensable part of the capital’s nightlife, therefore winning the “Best Big Club” category at Budapest Nightlife Awards.

Ötkert Budapest is all about the VIP treatment

The best things in life never come easy – that’s why people looking to join Otkert’s dance floor will have to queue up for some time. While those wasted minutes will be worth it when you finally step inside the club, you can skip the queue if you are willing to splurge.

Booking a VIP table is not only about receiving top-notch hospitality services, but also about skipping the agonizing queue.
