  1. Müpa’s Sunday János vitéz programme offers morning and afternoon starting times for families in Budapest. Our article explains the time needed and gives a four-ticket cost illustration, without promising available seats. The chosen performance must match the time on the ticket.

  2. The Skanzen gastronomic season finale is scheduled for 14–15 November. This is a separate occasion from this weekend’s walking-ticket visit. Exceptional opening during the winter break should also be factored into travel planning.

  3. Ecofin’s tobacco tax talks aim for a political agreement on Monday. For Hungarian shoppers, the distinction between an EU minimum, domestic tax rules and retail prices matters. A specific price effect cannot yet be calculated without the final terms.

  4. Our article on Google Sheets’ chart update offers practical considerations for interpreting data reports. Aligning the data range, period and unit is also necessary in company reporting. A visually apparent difference still requires further investigation to establish its cause.

  5. EU foreign ministers’ next meeting will include Ukraine’s winter situation on its agenda. The discussions on 16 November are relevant to Hungary because of the neighbouring country’s security. The Council’s 6 November forward look describes planned meetings; adopted decisions will become clear from their outcome reports.
