The opening ceremony took place in the presence of outgoing President János Áder, President-elect Katalin Novák and Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

“But in the end, value prevailed. And those who wanted to work at the highest possible level. and I knew that the Budapest opera performance had to be on par with the best in Europe,” he added.
