If you want to meet with the Hungarian community in Singapore, come to the East Coast Park Marine Cove Playground, where the Hungarians are having a picnic and family day to celebrate Hungarian National Day!

August is St. Stephen’s Day in Hungary. Hungarians celebrate the foundation of the Hungarian state and the bread made from the new flour.

St. Stephen (Szent István király, ca. 975 – 15 August 1038), as the first king of Hungary, led the country into the Christian church and established the institutions of the kingdom and the church. He was canonized on 20 August 1083, and 20 August is his feast day in Hungary.
