Exactly what and how our ancestors celebrated 20 August varied from one period to the other. While many elements of today the celebration we know date back almost a thousand years, there are also some very recent traditions.
The reason why we are celebrating our first king, the foundation of the state and Hungary's birthday on 20 August, a few days late is because of a medieval feud between cousins.
The organisers of the 20 August celebrations are expecting even more visitors than last year's almost two million. There will be more than twenty venues, which will offer hundreds of programmes, family and children's events, pop, and classical concerts as well as traditional Hungarian cuisine. More than 12,000 people are involved in the preparation and organization of the four days of activities for St. Stephen's Day, which is also a major tourist event.
