NEWS ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

600 performers took part in the XII International Folklore Festival in Rimini, held from 12 to 15 September 2019 in the Italian town. The representative nature of the forum provided an opportunity to groups from Serbia, Croatia, Palestine and Russia to show their folk art in the best way.

“The event took place in an incredibly friendly atmosphere, and the perfect organization contributed to the good mood of the participants. The participating groups impressed the audience with their well-presented music and dance skills. The free time for all foreign groups was fun and well-used - in exploring the most famous resort on the Italian Adriatic Riviera.”, said in addition the festival director
