Galiba Children Festival

2019-08-15 • 15:00 - 2019-08-20 • 16:00

Free

The idea of giving a chance to kids to get a taste of the pleasures of carnival feasting dates back to 2012: as a “junior sibling” of the flower festival parade, kids from kindergartens, grade schools, amateur dance troupes and various non-government organizations can also prepare their own small floats to become part of a carnival procession. The title of Galiba kids’ festival may also remind us of the eponymous protagonist of Ludas Matyi by the Hungarian author Mihály Fazekas or, rather, more specifically, of one his geese, called Galiba. As “there is no animal nicer than a goose,” we will also try to smuggle in a little bit of appreciation of geese among the thematic ideas of flowers during the course of “calamities.”
