Tens of thousands of participants are expected for the annual March of the Living in the Hungarian capital on Sunday, 17 April 2016.
For the past 14 years, the Hungarian March of the Living Foundation has organized the Budapest March. Last year, more than 40.000 people commemorated the victims of the Shoah and heard a keynote speech from World Jewish Congress President Ronald Lauder.
The march is the largest civic demonstration against racism, anti-Semitism and neo-Nazi and anti-democratic movements in Hungary.
This year's edition in Budapest will feature as speakers representatives of the main Hungarian churches. Main speaker of the event will be the poet and actor, protagonist of the Oscar winning movie: Son of Saul, Geza Rohrig.
Short ceremonial elements will complete the event, which will be broadcast live on the internet, including translation into English.
