10 Years of Csillagszeműek Anglia – Anniversary Show at the Liszt Institute

This autumn marks the 10th anniversary of Csillagszeműek Anglia, and to celebrate the occasion, they are preparing a special performance on Saturday, 5 July 2025 at the Liszt Institute in London.

The group was founded in 2014 by Kriszta and Gergely Paládi-Kovács, together with their children, Boldi and Mesi. Since then, Csillagszeműek Anglia has grown into more than just a dance group – it has become a vibrant community connecting generations through the living traditions of Hungarian folk dance and music.

They describe their mission as follows:

“Csillagszeműek Anglia offers Hungarian folk dance education to children aged 3–14 in the UK. Our dance group was founded in autumn 2014. We currently teach more than 120 children at various locations in London, as well as in Surrey and Hampshire counties.”

As the UK representative of the Csillagszemű Dance Ensemble in Hungary, their teaching is based on the unique Timár method, which introduces children to folk dance in a playful yet deeply meaningful way. Their goal is for as many children as possible to encounter the still-living traditions of Hungarian folk culture from an early age – not as a distant concept, but as an experience that becomes a natural part of everyday life.

This anniversary performance will be a celebration not only of the past ten years, but of the community, the educational journey, and the joy that dance brings – to the children, their families, and everyone who supports the work of Csillagszeműek Anglia.
