Jasličkári, jaslickare[1] (English:The Infant) or betlehemci[2] (English: The Bethlehemers) is a Christmas tradition within the Catholic communities of Slovakia where a troupe of young men visit the homes of their neighbors and perform recitations and songs to commemorate the story of the birth of Jesus Christ.[3] The performers are dressed in costumes said to represent shepherds or angels[3] and carry staffs and a creche.[4] They often accompany Christmas carolers.[2]
