The oldest university club of P\u00e9cs was opened in 1972 at the institution then called the University of Teacher Training, by refurbishing a coal cellar with a capacity of 150. It is still located there, under Nr 6 Ijf\u00fas\u00e1g \u00fatja, on the ground floor of building A in the campus of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences of the University of P\u00e9cs. Now it has an increased capacity of about 300.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Szenes Klub is known by every resident of P\u00e9cs\u2014and definitely by every student. The university club that has defined the cultural and party life of the city for decades was where the success story of Hungarian bands Kisp\u00e1l \u00e9s a Borz and 30Y started too. Andr\u00e1s Lovasi and his band rehearsed here, and also had their very first concert in this club in 1987. And Zolt\u00e1n Beck and his friends played their first sold-out gig in Szenes premiering the Cs\u00e9sz\u00e9nyi t\u00e9r album in 2006. Of course, one must remember that this cult place, which had a serious \u201cfacelift\u201d in 2016, is also a key centre for the students of the university through hosting workshops, lecture series, theatrical plays, board game meetings, film clubs, professional evenings and technical discussions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So it might not be surprising that the legendary institution is now officially a historical site of Hungarian popular music, as the impossibly named Sub-programme Supporting the Preservation of the Popular Music Heritage of Hungary as part of the National Cultural Fund\u2019s Hangfoglal\u00f3 Programme Promoting Popular Music has given Szenes the status of \u201cmemorial site of popular music history\u201d as part of its \u201cPopular Music Educational Trail\u201d launched in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
