Varga Studio, Ltd. was an animation studio located in Budapest, Hungary. It operated from March 1978 to July 2020 and was one of Europe's nine leading animation houses. While most of its work was for European animation, it occasionally animated for American series and in other countries like Mexico and Canada.
Varga has animated for the following series and films:
- Amazing Animals (2D segments only)
- The Animal Train (co-produced with TVC London)
- Animaniacs (When You're Traveling skit only)
- Angelina Ballerina
- As Told by Ginger (pilot only)

In addition, Varga worked on many early advertisements for Butterfinger featuring The Simpsons, as well as music videos of The Simpsons such as "Do The Bartman" and "Deep Deep Trouble". They were subcontracted for these specials so that the regular Simpsons studios like AKOM, Rough Draft Studios, and Anivision were not burdened with extra work and could concentrate on animating full episodes.
From 2000, the studio produced cartoons as a subcontractor to Varga Holdings, which was established at the time, and to its owner, Varga Holdings Ltd., which was registered in the United Kingdom. The 2002 Mr. Bean cartoon series reached nearly four million views at its premiere in the UK. The production cost was more than six million dollars.
Varga Studios also worked on the production logo for Universal Cartoon Studios, the animation division of Universal Studios.
