This tradition had also been affected by the coronavirus epidemic. This year we will tune in differently to Christmas – said László Papp, Mayor of Debrecen.

The crowd gathering in front of the Great Church cannot happen, instead, the first Advent candle of the city’s administration will be lit in a closed circle, which will be broadcast online, live on the mayor’s Facebook page at 5pm on Sunday.

We can hear an Advent message from the Roman Catholic county bishop Ferenc Palánki, the Greek Catholic archbishop metropolitan Fülöp Kocsis and the Reformed bishop Károly Fekete.
