International Day of Redheads will be held in Mukachevo

They always stand out in a gray crowd. There are few of them – just 1 to 3% of the Earth’s population – and they are special: talented, sullen, temperamental, free-spirited. In the dark Middle Ages, in many countries, they were believed to be wizards and witches and burned alive. They are redheads! In early September, all red-haired people on earth celebrate the International Day of Redheads.

The first parade of redheads of Transcarpathia will be held in Mukachevo.

Valuable and interesting prizes await the winners in the following nominations:

• "Bronze Rapunzel" – the longest red hair (natural)
• "Red Waterfall" – the longest red hair (dyed)
• "The Daughter of the Sun" – the reddest girl (natural hair)
• "Fire Lady" – the reddest girl (dyed hair)
• "The Bronze Prince" – the reddest boy
• "Honey Idyll" – the reddest couple
• "The Fox Family" – the reddest family with children
• "Red Sunshine" – the reddest child (under 10 years old)
• "Crimson Beard" – the reddest beard and mustache

And different Mukachevo establishments on that day will be offering discounts and surprises for redheads!

The event will be held on September 3. The beginning is at 18:00, on Cyril and Methodius Square
