1) SALAMANDER DAYS
Salamander used to be a solemn parade across Banská Štiavnica back in the day but when the mining and forestry academy was moved to Hungary, the annual parades began to decline. In 1993, the event was re-established and became one of the greatest events held in Banská Štiavnica. Apart from the parade celebrating miners and geologists, visitors can look forward to concerts, theatre, exhibitions, and other fun activities for all. More information here (in Slovak only).
