In 2026, Káptalantóti’s market swings open every Sunday, welcoming new and returning shoppers to one of the Balaton Uplands’ prettiest spots in the Káli Basin. This nationally famous hotspot was dreamed up and launched by biologist-engineer Harmathy Ildikó. Show up on an empty stomach—it’s impossible to wander the local producers’ stalls without devouring samples. Dive into baskets of lard and cheese pogácsas, heaps of fragrant caraway kiflis, and fresh-from-the-oven sour cream lángos steaming from the oven. Address: 8283 Káptalantóti, Petőfi Street 1. Next up: March 29, 2026 (Sunday).
Liliomkert (Lily Garden) Market Schedule
From January 1 to December 31, 2026, the Liliomkert (Lily Garden) market runs every Sunday from 7:00 to 14:00. What began as a casual, friendly chat has exploded into the region’s top hangout for producers and buyers who travel far just for it.
Unique Vibe and Offerings
The magic comes from local producers and artisans showing up in person, forging direct bonds with shoppers who taste-test freely and snag fresh, top-quality goods straight from the makers. Expect a huge array of homemade and craft items: foods like homemade cheeses, fresh cracklings, hams, syrups, jams, fresh and dried fruits, home-baked breads, cakes, and strudels in various flavors; drinks including homemade syrups, pálinkas, and local wines; crafts such as carvings, handmade ornaments, lavender- and rose-scented white ceramics, and one-of-a-kind gifts; plus antiques like old objects, books, and quirky finds.
Tips for Visitors
Crowds peak in the mornings thanks to the buzz, so be prepared for that. Bring cash—not every stall takes cards. Káptalantóti awaits on March 29, 2026.
