Hey, I've heard fireworks near Parliament just now. Was it for celebration? Does anyone know anything about it?

It's Saturday. Others heard it too: https://www.reddit.com/r/budapest/s/8gF4vv3Xn1

Possibly marriage or birthday.

I know it's Saturday, I thought maybe Whit Sunday eve or smt. I didn't know that it's allowed to have fireworks in the public areas for that long for personal purposes. Good for them ig

Because it's not allowed generally. Only on new year's Eve OR if you have permit. I guess the fine is so low they just don't care if somebody catch them.

Not sure if even possible, but I think it was private for a wedding?

Was beautiful though.
