The 11th Lantern March for St Martin's Day takes place on 11 November 2026, from 17:30, in Central Park in Cluj-Napoca. The aim of the event is to preserve and revive the traditions linked to St Martin. Pre-schoolers and younger schoolchildren are invited, together with their parents and grandparents, carrying lanterns they have made themselves, to bear the light that heralds the kindness of St Martin.
The route starts at the park entrance on the Hungarian Opera (Magyar Színház) side, with music, and goes around the lake. At the filegorie, participants receive hot tea and bread with lard, provided by Petry and Culina Nostra. The atmosphere is provided by folk musicians.
