The Palace of the Parliament will turn off the lights for one hour on Saturday evening to mark Earth Hour 2026.

The interior, exterior, and festive lighting of the Palace of Parliament will be turned off on Saturday evening, between 8:30 PM and 9:30 PM, to mark the event "Earth Hour." The Chamber of Deputies is also participating this year in the global campaign organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature, aimed at raising awareness about environmental protection and climate change.

This participation is a tradition for the Chamber of Deputies, which has supported the event since its first edition in Romania. 'Earth Hour' was initiated on March 31, 2007, in Sydney and has evolved into a global movement, with iconic buildings around the world turning off their lights to draw attention to climate change. The campaign brings together hundreds of millions of people from over 8,000 cities and 190 countries, promoting a strong message against global warming.
