The Fidesz party would have shown signs of life, but then János Áder came.

A Fidesz commemorated October 23 with a gathering at Bem rakpart, marking their first event in opposition without Viktor Orbán. Despite the absence of key figures, the atmosphere remained lively, with attendees engaging in selfies and conversations. However, the event's momentum waned during Áder János's lengthy historical lecture, causing some attendees to lose interest. Tensions arose as a small protest group clashed with Fidesz supporters, requiring police intervention. Schmidt Mária concluded the event with a call for new heroes, hinting at a generational shift within the party. The gathering ended with a subdued chant for Orbán, reflecting the party's ongoing challenges in maintaining youth engagement.
