The garda, a species of fish that also features in the coat of arms of Tihany, is originally a marine fish that became trapped in Lake Balaton and moved to freshwater.

The 1st Tihany Garda Festival, Gardalia, was organised by the House of Culture in Tihany on 16-17 November 2002 in several locations. The first edition was already a great success, although at that time there was only one accompanying boat to watch the fishing. The fish soup and fish food cooking competition is now also a very popular event, with three teams entering for the first time, and in recent years the competition has attracted more than 30 teams.
