Danube Day 2014

Close to where the Morava flows into the mighty Danube, come and celebrate 20 years of international river cooperation on Saturday 21st of June (10:00-14:00). Devin, north-west of Bratislava, is the venue for this year's Danube Day organised by Vodohospodarska vystavba and the Ministry of the Environment.

Roman Bombos, radio and TV personality, will introduce a packed programme of fun events both on and about the Danube. Come along for free boat trips (at 12:00, 13:00, 14:00), kayaking, dance performances, river rescue and first aid demos, electric car trials, creative competitions and the chance to meet the stars of the show: sturgeon. For the very young, they’ll be games, face-painting, art activities and a photo shoot with a water sprite!

The competition to find Slovakia’s young Danube Art Master reaches its climax at the Devin Danube Day celebration, with the announcement of national winners. This 14-country youth competition invites you to get creative and make a piece of 3D art to illustrate what your river means to you.
