Fehérvár Advent

Fehérvár Advent

2018. november 30. - 2018. december 23.

The falling snow, the smell of spit cakes (kürtőskalács) and mulled wine lures everybody out into the Fő (Main) Street where they can admire the nativity scene and the giant Christmas tree. Strolling through the streets during the Advent season accompanied by Christmas carols.

At the Városháza (Town Hall) Square visitors can see the musical plays of nursery-school children and students, festive programs and the fair of artisan products and gifts. In preparation for the most intimate holiday of the year there is a New Testament Marathon organised in the Vörösmarty Theatre and a pop-music concert on the Zichy stage while in the court of the Town Hall visitors can see a nativity scene. The gardens of the Bishop’s Palace are also open throughout this time and it is very inviting with its splendid scenery, staged programmes and an artisan market as well as related activities. We can be a part of the lighting of the Advent candles twice a week: at the Bishop’s Palace on Saturday afternoons and on the stage at the Town Hall Square on Sundays where the lights of Advent flare up. Last year was the first time that Fehérvár made it onto the “12 best Advent fairs” list of Juno. We guarantee you will be able to choose from a generous selection of colourful events.
