Party rules
- Smoking is only allowed outside and in the designated smoking room. The facility is equipped with a fire alarm system, which the cigarette smoke might set off, and that would be bad.
- Alcohol consumption is allowed, but please be reasonable, overconsumption might ruin your own and others' fun as well. Any type of damage or offence caused due to that will not be tolerated and will result in the removal from the party.
- Consumption and circulation of other drugs at the party place is strictly forbidden, and will result in immediate expulsion from the party.
- As you can see on the picture, the partyplace looks beautiful, so we'd like to ask you to keep it in this state! Any type of damage will be forced to be paid by the causer! If the person is unknown, we'll have to deduct the price from the party budget, which might endanger the future parties and the cooperation with the partyplace owners! Please take this very seriously.
- The Partynet is free for all, but since the bandwidth is limited, please do not use the party to leech. By default, we're not using any type of limiting, but we WILL if we have to. Downloading and hosting illegal material on the network is not allowed.
- Connecting kitchen equipment to the power network is forbidden. If this causes a power outage, you'll be held responsible by all the unhappy people...
- Organizers are not responsible for any equipment at the party, anything you bring is your responsibility. Luckily we haven't had damage or theft at parties since a while now, and we'd like that to continue so.
Reaching the location
Getting to the partyplace is easiest with the suburban train ("HÉV") to Ráckeve, which starts from the Közvágóhíd (the Pest-end of the Lágymányosi bridge). You have to get off at the stop called Soroksár - Hősök tere, where every train stops. After getting off the stops, you have to go back ca. 300m-s, you can find the place at the other side of the Grassalkovich street. You can buy traintickets from the conductor on the train.You can also reach the place from the Határ út stop of the (blue) Metro no. 3., using the bus no. 66 or red 66. (The red one is a faster one so it's advised to choose that if available.) You have to get off at the stop named Hősök tere.
Reaching the place from various major points of the city:
- Déli Pályaudvar: (Southern Railway-station)
- Get on the metro and go to Kossuth tér. Change to tram no. 2. towards the Közvágóhíd (last stop). Warning: The no. 2A is only going to the Boráros square, so don't go by that. Here you can transfer to the suburban train and go to the stop mentioned above.
- Keleti Pályaudvar: (Eastern Railway-station)
- Next to the station you can find the Festetics György street, which is one of the terminals of the tram no. 24. Get on it and travel to the other terminal which is the Közvágóhíd. Here you can transfer to the suburban train and go to the stop mentioned above.
