During the day, the city center provided a background for the revival of the history and atmosphere of the past, and offered amazing experiences at the famous historical sites, public squares and hidden streets alike.
A whirl of cultural adventures awaited visitors: actors, musicians, special street entertainers and vendors offered the best of their works.
The mystical Early Christian Necropolis, the collection of buildings presenting the first Hungarian university, the monuments of Turkish occupation and the reborn Zsolnay factory buildings and residential buildings of the family have all come to life at the festival and have been animated by contemporary atmosphere, performances, and attractions.
