51ST INTERNATIONAL FOLKLORE FESTIVAL
18 to 22 July 2017
51st International Folklore Festival features performances, workshops, concerts, exhibitions and meetings with performers. Folklore groups perform in a themed program featuring the ethnographic heritage of Banovina and the Una River region, characteristic singingand dancing, presentations of customs and crafts, which are all very diverse and rich, but previously underpresented in Croatia.
The themed program will be presented in Gradec during an evening performance of groups from Banovina and the Una River region, and it will be broadcast live by the Croatian Television.
Apart from Banovina and the Una River region, the Festival will feature a total of 29 different groups presenting the variety of Croatian ethnographic heritage, as well as Croatian groups from neighboring countries. Eleven groups will present the heritage of other nations and cultures. This year we will have seven groups from other continents and four from Europe.
The 51st International Folklore Festival is held under the auspices of the Croatian Parliament.
