An evening full of light, song, and shared paths
On Friday, November 6, 2026, Saint Martin will walk through Duisburg City. The parade starts at 4:45 PM and runs until 7:00 PM through Königstraße and the surrounding streets. From the sea of lights created by the lanterns, a quiet yet festive procession arises that brings the thoughts of sharing and neighborly love to the heart of the city.
St. Martin as a religious role model
The figure of Saint Martin stands for mercy, helpfulness, and lived faith in Christian tradition. Particularly in the tradition of St. Martin, this message becomes visible for children, families, and the community. The parade invites you to not only hear the story of Martin but to experience it as a community and internalize it with songs, lights, and encounters.
