Schedule
The audience can once again expect the unique, evocative style of playing that has become Bence's trademark, as well as the creative ideas and audience participation that characterize his concerts. The visuals of the production also reach a new level: 3D lighting technology, interactive projections, and complex stage design complete the audiovisual experience.
One of the most exciting elements of the concert is the surprise guest, who is none other than Péter Bence himself. The evening will see two world stars come together on stage, and their unique collaboration is guaranteed to deliver cathartic musical moments.
Bence Péter has performed in more than 50 countries at world-famous concert venues, including the Sydney Opera House, the London Palladium, Le Grand Rex in Paris, and Massey Hall in Toronto. His current return home is not just another concert, but a milestone in his career. Once again, the MVM Dome will be the perfect home for this audiovisual journey, which goes beyond a classic concert experience—it will be a total art performance where music, visuals, and human creativity become limitless.
MVM Dome
MVM Dome is the seventh largest indoor event venue in Europe. Its capacity for sports events and concerts is significantly higher than that of the Budapest Sports Arena. It has 20,022 seats; a total of 50,000 square metres of floor space; innovative, rearrangeable spaces for many indoor sports (handball, basketball and volleyball, futsal, ice hockey, tennis, skating) as well as certain athletic, equestrian and motorcycle competitions, and even swimming competitions and water polo matches in the mobile pool. Through the six entrances to the building, spectators can enter the arena’s interior using eight escalators, leading to the walk-through grandstands accessible on three levels. The structure of the building’s exterior is reminiscent of muscle fibres: the light strips placed on the outward-leaning, elliptical sections not only embrace the building, but the light shows, programmed using various colours, appear to set the entire building in motion. There is a 600 square metre display on the façade of the building. The Main Entrance leads to an impressive foyer, where visitors will be greeted by a grandiose hanging light installation of 848 handmade glass tubes. The programmable sports lighting is also suitable for HDTV broadcasts of the highest-level world competitions, as well as for super-slow-motion recordings due to flicker free technology. The lighting system also plays an important role in the events and concerts, as it is suitable for changing the colour temperature of the auditorium, which means that the lighting functions can be changed without rearranging the arena, only through the pre-programmed lighting controls. This design is the first and is unique in Europe for luminaires of this power. A central display (cube) provides information in the auditorium during the events.
