This year, the cream of Hungarian masters and
craftsmen
will move in to the
Buda Castle
for the 29th time. At the
Festival of Folk Arts
between the 20th and 23rd of August, for four days the focus will be on the
life of shepherds
. The main goal of the festival has remained the same for nearly three decades: to present very rare but still active crafts that exist thanks to creative minds and hardworking people from the past. Talking about creativity, one of the most ancient crafts, the pastoral life is a great example; profession and lifestyle at the same time, since ancient times.
The Festival of Folk Arts, organized by the
Association of Hungarian Folk Artists
, will have some surprises, as this year new exhibition rooms will open up and amazing performers will build up the amazing theatrical repertoire. Just a few of them: the
Kerekes Band
, the
Muzsikás Band
,
Júlia Kubinyi
,
Félix Lajkó
,
Edina Mókus Szirtes
,
Balázs Szokolay Dongó
,
Szilvia Bognár
and
Mihály Dresch
. True to traditions, visitors will also be able to enjoy masterpieces of handicraft gastronomy.
