The World Hunting Expo heading to Hungary in 2021 is expected to draw more than one million visitors to the country, says State Secretary Zoltán Kovács.

According to MTI, he revealed that the center of the events would be the international hunting exhibition at Budapest’s Hungexpo Fair Center. A number of other exhibitions, conferences and events will also accompany this three-week-long exhibition. Fish, game gastronomy, and related wines will also play an important role at the events.

The state secretary also said 6-7 billion forints (EUR 17,779,000-20,742,000) has been spent on the preparations so far, adding that the central theme of the Budapest event would be to raise awareness on the importance of nature conservation and sustainability.
