Orsolya Ifi-Valde

Orsolya was born in Budapest and earned her law degree here. Before her legal carrier, she traveled the world as a flight attendant for Malév Hungarian Airlines . As an international lawyer, she worked in the fields of anti-corruption and human rights, collaborating with the OECD and the United Nations.

In 2012, she founded the Paloznaki Jazzpiknik festival, which has since become an iconic boutique festival of the lake Balaton summer. For me the Piknik is not just a business but a mission and a loving community space.

Today, alongside festival management, she works in developing compliance and integrity management systems. She lives in Budapest with her husband, four children, and two dogs.
