3 Kings Parades in Poland for Epiphany still Gather People but Many Watch Online due to Pandemic - VIDEO


The traditional procession of the Magi in Poland on Epiphany usually brings over a million people to the streets. However, this year, due to the pandemic the Magi went through Krakow with fewer spectators. 

Watch the Parade from Warsaw:

During the pandemic and national quarantine, it could not be otherwise: this year's parade of the Three Kings was held in many parts of the country on January 6, respecting the rules of the sanitary regime and applicable law, and therefore completely dissimilar to previous years. Admittedly, the three kings walked along the traditional routes of the red, blue and green retinue to worship the Child in the Main Square - but without the large crowds. 

They sang Christmas carols, and baby Jesus appeared with Mary and Joseph. 

One thing has not changed: there was a collection of funds for the Work of Help of St. Padre Pio,  established 16 years ago, which helps people experiencing homelessness and those at risk.

Every year, for many years, the Work has been present at the Three Kings in Kraków. - They invest in our housing programs so that people who experience homelessness can change their life situation.
