Carnival in the Citadel 2026 brings color, energy, and emotion to the heart of the Sighișoara Citadel.
For 5 days, the city transforms into a place where people gather, smile, discover, and live every moment together. The streets find their rhythm, the atmosphere becomes vibrant, and every corner tells a story.
It is an event about joy, connection, and those simple moments that stay with you long after it’s over.

WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER
Parades and artistic moments that bring the Citadel's streets to life
Shows and activities for all ages
Visual installations and decorations that transform the city
Music, energy, and outdoor experiences
Areas for relaxation, socializing, and exploration

WHY YOU SHOULD COME
For an atmosphere that cannot be replicated anywhere else
For those unplanned moments that you’ll always remember
For the people you meet and the energy you feel
For the experience of a city that lives differently
