This years programme presents A Century of Seljačka sloga (Peasant Harmony), presenting in such way sources and continuity of today’s folklore presentations and festivals, especially Zagreb International Folklore Festival which was established and based on shows presenting peasant culture in Croatia’s capital in the period between the two world wars. This year we also celebrate a hundred year anniversary of Seljačka sloga as a cultural, educational and charity organization that tried to empower Croatian peasants and enlighten the value of their culture.

The Festival presents more vocal and instrumental performances with fewer performers on stage, with dance numbers only where epidemiological situation will allow it, respecting social distances and safety measures. Besides folklore performances, the festival’s audience is able to choose between musical concerts, film showings, ethnographic exhibitions, scientific forums and many other activities set on different parts of Zagreb.
