EVENT
In Piran, a town with rich traditions, including tourist ones, closely related to the sea, the end of the second week in July brings a colourful group of dancers together at the Mediterranean International Folklore Festival from countries along the most popular sea for summer holidays – the Mediterranean.
Besides the local folklore group and at least one group from Slovenia, three to four guest groups are presented at the festival. This year dancers from Malta and Portugal will participate, as well as groups from our neighbours, Italy and Croatia.
The festival includes a presentation of folklore tradition, dances, songs, music and national costumes of Mediterranean countries, taking place in Tartini Square in Piran and Auditorium Portorose, as well as a folklore workshop for all the participants and an organised visit of Slovenian Istria's cultural attractions.
