Known for its innovative solutions, Semsei Gastronomy’s new project seems to be a promising concept in itself, at the same time also strengthening synergies within the group.

Rudolf Semsei: “From a business perspective, Paprika is a brave experiment. We wish to show that Hungarian folklore, gastronomy and modern entertainment can work together at a high level, without being kitschy. Feedback from both professionals and guests is that we have created a concept that fills a gap in the market. The target audience of Paprika Revue House is foreign tourists. When there are no shows, we want to market the venue as an event location, primarily for corporate gatherings, as it has everything you could want and more: a great stage, good lighting and sound technology, a superb LED wall and great accessibility”.
