They have joined forces and created the first such event that was called the Night of Fulfilled Dreams.
The park was transformed into a real Enchanted forest by the careful hands of the organizers.
Thousands of candles decorated the roads. People let their floating lamps fly by the side of the Somes.
In 2004 more than 200 people participated to the event. Who tried to symbolize their dreams
their desires by candles and candle holders made of paper.
Over the past decade, the Light Festival has become one of the most popular events in Cluj-Napoca.
Thousands of candle are placed in the designated locations instead of 200 candles.
The aim of the Light Festival din not change compared to previous years.
The organizers wanted to make each and every participant smile, they wanted to move people
out of their daily routine, to give them an opportunity to explore life's little beauties.
This time life's little pleasures were symbolized by the paper candle holders, that were very beautiful in the dark.
At the end of the event fire jugglers demonstrated their talents by performing dangerous stunts and
providing the participants with a unique entertainment experience.
