BabaMama Expo & KidExpo
On November 21–22, the Papp László Budapest Sportaréna will become a kingdom for families for two days: the 19th BabaMama Expo and the KidExpo experience weekend will welcome visitors at a shared venue, with a single admission ticket. Together, the two events cover almost everything that could concern a family expecting a baby, with young children, or even with children just starting school.
Schedule
There are weekends when it would be good to finally get everything done. To see the car seats we have been browsing online for weeks in person. To ask a professional how we can support our child’s development. To try out a few new toys, gather ideas for Christmas, and, in the meantime, find a shared activity that the children will love too. The BabaMama Expo and KidExpo offer exactly that: on November 21–22, the worlds of pregnancy, parenting, play, development, entertainment, and Christmas preparations come together in one place. While parents receive useful information, personal advice, and inspiration, children can explore, create, play sports, and have fun.babamamaexpo+1
From Pregnancy to First Steps – Everything You Would Want to Find in One Place
Anyone who has prepared for a baby’s arrival knows how many questions arise. Which stroller will be the most practical? Which car seat should we choose? Will we need a breathing monitor? How should we prepare for childbirth, breastfeeding, or the first weeks at home?
The event’s more than 150 exhibitors will help visitors navigate the options across 8,000 square metres. Visitors can see, compare, and try out strollers, baby carriers, car seats, nursery furniture, feeding and baby-care products, and the latest safety solutions in person. Because no matter how many reviews you read about a stroller, it is a completely different feeling to fold it, push it, and see for yourself whether it truly meets your needs.babamamaexpo+1
Alongside the products, personal encounters also play a key role: obstetric professionals, paediatric nurses, orthopaedic specialists, and physiotherapists will help visitors navigate questions about pregnancy, baby care, and motor development. Families can also look forward to a free baby-massage mini-course, personal consultations, and health screenings. On stage, topics that concern almost every parent of a baby will be discussed: infant colic, reflux, frequent night waking, introducing solids, and healthy development.babamamaexpo
Where Children Play and Parents Find Answers
As children grow, the questions change too. Which toys truly support development? How can we encourage children to enjoy physical activity? What should we do if a child is picky about food, struggles to manage their emotions, or spends too much time in front of a screen? The event organisers believe that at a truly good family event, it is not only the children who should have a great time. Parents deserve an experience, inspiration, and support too.kidexpo
Children can learn almost without noticing as they create during creative activities, try board games and sensory toys, play sports, or explore the world of science. They can even try skiing, discover the secrets of outer space, or sit in a mini construction vehicle. Meanwhile, parents can see first-hand what truly sparks their child’s interest, what activities they excel at, and what can hold their attention for longer.kidexpo
Children’s physical and emotional development also plays a prominent role in the event’s programme. Professionals will help visitors navigate questions of motor development, healthy nutrition, and parenting. Parents can seek personal advice from a dietitian about the diets of picky eaters, and from a psychologist about emotional and parenting challenges. Móni Füstös, a well-known advocate of positive discipline, will speak about connection, setting boundaries, and the challenges of modern parenting. Dorka Gryllus and Tamás Lengyel will share personal experiences about how an acting career can be reconciled with family life, and how fathers’ roles are changing. Because parents need not only practical tools, but also knowledge, reassurance, and sometimes a good conversation.babamamaexpo+1
Concerts, Magic, and Creativity
On stage, Auntie Titi’s musical story cave will welcome the youngest visitors with an interactive concert, while Dániel Varró and Gyuri Molnár’s musical literary programme will bring the world of poetry closer to children. Gergő Csatai’s magic show is guaranteed to spark the imagination. On Sunday, the Rutkai Bori Banda concert will add even more colour to the programme.babamamaexpo+1
Prizes Worth Millions – Even a Complete Baby Starter Kit Could Find an Owner
One of the event’s most eagerly awaited traditions is the Baby Expecting Package prize draw, which this year comes with a bigger surprise than ever before: the HUF 2.5 million package includes nursery furniture, a stroller set, a car seat, enough nappies for a year, cord-blood stem-cell storage services, and shopping vouchers. In addition, a family weekend worth HUF 400,000 and two HUF 100,000 toy-shopping vouchers will also find owners among the visitors. The valuable prizes of the three daily stage raffles promise further surprises.babamamaexpo+1
Two Events, One Ticket, Countless Shared Experiences
Since 2007, the BabaMama Expo has been helping expectant parents and families with babies meet the players, experts, and latest solutions of the baby-and-mama market in person. KidExpo adds playful, creative, sporting, and scientific experiences for older children. Because the best family event is one that children return home from happy—and parents feel was truly worth the day.babamamaexpo+1
