It is estimated that more than 500,000 people in Hungary are affected by gluten sensitivity and more than 70,000 people are diagnosed with celiac disease today – many of them without knowing it. While gluten sensitivity (non-celiac gluten sensitivity, NCGS) results in various unpleasant symptoms – such as bloating, diarrhea, headaches, fatigue -, celiac disease is an autoimmune disease where the body attacks its own intestinal tract in response to gluten – even minimal gluten intake can cause serious inflammation.

The problem affects more and more families, children, public institutions and the healthcare sector, and the solution is safe, controlled gluten-free foods. Fortunately, there are more and more innovative bakeries and manufacturers in our country who provide real help to those affected – many of them will be present at the Only Free Autumn Festival.

One of the highlights of the Only Gluten-Free Autumn Festival, which will be held at MoM Sport on September 20-21, 2025, is the Guinness record attempt on Sunday, the professional responsible for which is Judit Horváth, confectioner, recipe book author, and co-author of Fermented Kitchen. The goal is to make 50 different types of guaranteed gluten-free bread and baked goods on site, baked on site. Such a large, controlled gluten-free offering has never been available in Hungary.

At the event, more than 80 free exhibitors will present the latest gluten-, lactose-, sugar-free, vegan, organic, paleo ingredients and finished products, as well as natural cosmetics, zero waste and eco-cleaning products. Visitors can learn about the latest trends in freedom and conscious living through discounted shopping opportunities, live tastings, gift package tickets and online coupon booklets.

The event is not only about health-conscious nutrition and lifestyle – but also about social responsibility. In honor of World Breast Cancer Day on October 1, the organizers will donate HUF 500 to the Breast Cancer Association for every gift package ticket sold. The symbol of the charitable initiative is the pink design of the autumn gift package, which is not only heartfelt, but can also save lives. Because #everywomancounts!

The festival also offers show kitchen cooking, practical workshops, consultations, professional presentations and book launches.

On Saturday, visitors can attend, among others, Dr. Zita Csomai’s lecture entitled “The Relationship between Autoimmune Diseases and Food Sensitivities” and the book launch by Fruzsina Czecz and Andrea Oláh “What Don’t You Eat? – The Psychology of Mindless Eating”.

On Sunday, Péter Szebenyi’s lecture entitled “Microplastics, with which we poison ourselves every day” will be held, as well as a roundtable discussion by the Breast Cancer Awareness Association, which will address women’s health issues without taboos and provide practical advice for prevention. On this day, the Guinness record result will be verified and announced, as well as the launch of Judit Horváth’s book “Gluten-free Bakery”.

The Festival is committed to sustainability – visitors can arrive with their own water bottle, which they can refill at the BWT stand. The event is family-friendly, so even the youngest are welcome with a children’s corner and healthy snacks.

With the help of the Green Belt Association, there is also a selective waste collection service on site – so that everything is recycled.
