Almost 500 volunteers will form the traditional Salamander Parade, passing through Banská Štiavnica on Friday. The parade, which has been part of the Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Slovakia since 2013, attracts thousands of visitors from all over Slovakia and abroad every year. The importance of the event is underlined by its connection with the National Day of Miners, Metallurgists, Geologists and Oilmen celebrations, as well as with the town's festivities. Salamander days also includes a number of accompanying events - exhibitions, concerts, performances for children, open days and other activities for the public.
