Dear friends,
The Honorary Consulate of Romania to Connecticut is pleased to invite you to join us for our annual celebration of Romania’s National Day, on December 1, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM, in Room 310 of the Connecticut State Capitol.

Theme of the 2026 Celebration:
“100 Years Since Queen Marie’s Visit to the United States; 250 Years of American Democracy”
This year’s celebration holds particular historical significance. As we mark Romania’s National Day, we will commemorate the centennial of Queen Marie of Romania’s landmark 1926 visit to the United States, a remarkable chapter in the history of Romanian-American friendship. At the same time, we will join in commemorating 250 years of American democracy, honoring the shared democratic values and enduring ties that continue to bring Romania and the United States together.
The program is planned to include:
➡️ Official remarks by leaders engaged in the Connecticut-Romanian bilateral exchanges and opportunities for fellowship and networking with Connecticut elected officials, diplomats, military representatives, sponsors, leaders, and members of the Romanian-American community;
➡️ A keynote address by Luke Bronin (to be confirmed), elected to represent Connecticut’s 1st Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, reflecting in part on his U.S. military service in Afghanistan alongside Romanian troops and the enduring partnership between our two nations;
➡️ A special artistic program featuring the national anthems, music from Romania’s interwar period in tribute to Queen Marie, Romanian multicultural museum video presentation, and traditional Romanian carols and songs;
➡️ A book and art exhibition dedicated to Queen Marie, her extraordinary legacy, and her historic relationship with the United States; and
➡️ Light hors d’oeuvres and an opportunity to connect with friends and community partners.
The program is also expected to be carried by Connecticut Network (CT-N), helping share this special celebration with audiences throughout Connecticut.
As we gather beneath the dome of the Connecticut State Capitol, we look forward to celebrating not only Romania’s National Day, but also a century of history since Queen Marie’s memorable American journey and the 250th anniversary of the United States.
Above all, we look forward to celebrating the friendship between Romania and the United States, a relationship rooted in shared values, strengthened through sacrifice and partnership, and carried forward today by the vibrant Romanian-American community.
