This day is a national holiday in honour of Saint Stephen (King István I.), founder of the state of Hungary, as well as the festival of the new bread. In a way you may say its the birtday of Hungary.
The great national celebration concludes on the evening of the 20th August with a spectacular half hour firework display over the River Danube and the Buda hills.

THE CLOWN IS ON THE ROAD, BUDAPEST
The clown is on the road. Our protagonist arrives with a large bag to the ring of the Capital Circus of Budapest and he changes to a clown's costume for the beginning of the show. He guides our audience through the performance dominated by joy, courage and love.
Clown David’s jokes make the dreadful presence of the lions, the dinamic gallop of the Cossack riding troupe and the breath-taking productions of the artists still more unforgettable experiance. Our show „The clown is on the road” promises a complete rest both for children and adults.
We’re looking forward to seeing you in the Capital Circus!
