The "Ełk dla Autyzmu" march, organized as part of the celebration of World Autism Awareness Day, will start on Wednesday, April 8, 2026 at 12:30 p.m. Participants will set off from the square at Dos Patos, from where they will walk along the promenade towards Copernicus Park.

This is the fourth edition of the event. Its aim is to increase public awareness of autism, as well as to promote acceptance, understanding and solidarity with people on the spectrum. 


The event is organized in cooperation with the Community Self-Help House in Ełk, the "Blue Bear" Association, the Association for People with Autism "IMPULS", the Community Self-Help House "Rainbow House" and the Support Group for Parents of Disabled Children in Ełk.

We encourage participants to dress in blue – it can be a T-shirt, hat, scarf or other small accent in this color – symbolizing solidarity with people on the autism spectrum – and to prepare their own banners and banners.

The culmination of the event will be a commemorative photo on the bridge (located next to Copernicus Park), decorated with blue balloons.
