Summary/Abstract: In our work, we seek to provide a comprehensive and comparative picture of the media consumption of young Hungarians aged 15–29 living in the Carpathian Basin. The Hungarian large-sample survey allows us to deal in detail with young people’s leisure activities and information consumption, especially with regard to social media. Despite the appreciation of personal leisure activities, leisure is mediatized. In each region, leisure activity for a third to a quarter of young people is related to a digital or media device. Among media-related leisure activities, the production of audio-visual content is insignificant compared to consumption in almost all cases.
