The Great Parade of Ełk during the City Days 2026

12 May 2026, Author: Monika Tyszkiewicz

The parade will end with a family festivity on the occasion of Children's Day on John Paul II Square and a concert by Blanka. 

Let's celebrate the Day of the City of Ełk together. We invite residents, schools, kindergartens, organizations, sports clubs, companies and groups of friends and families to participate in the Great Parade of Ełk, which will take place on May 23. The parade will end with a family festivity on the occasion of the Day Child on John Paul II Square. Participants are encouraged to prepare a costume or outfit with their own leitmotif - fairytale, sports, ecological or simply very colorful. Banners, balloons and decorations will be welcome. We encourage you to walk with your pets (of course, under the care of their owners). What matters is fun and creativity. During the festival, we will symbolically distinguish the most inventive, colorful and energetic groups of participants. There are no registrations or formalities – just come and play with us.
