Hungarian national TV stations broadcast the parade live, and showcased the Divine Land Marching Band. Spectators packed the five-kilometer (about three miles) parade route, along which three stages were set up.
As the Divine Land Marching Band passed the first stage, the sky started to clear up. The master of ceremonies introduced Falun Dafa and its principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, and added, “They have brought us sunshine!”
He introduced the band as “unique, interesting and diversified.” The band members came from all parts of the world. “The Europe Divine Land Marching Band represents the diversity of Europe,” he shared with spectators. “A common goal forges the members together: to introduce the beauty of Falun Dafa with music.”
