Experience the grandeur of music and culture at Viljandi Folk Music Festival 2023. This unique event has become one of the Baltic and Nordic nations' most acclaimed folk festivals!
Every July, the folk music festival in Viljandi Castle Hills and the city center celebrates a distinct way of thinking that began to spread in the 1990s. This celebration honors tradition, legacy, and local identity while contemporizing spiritual values that people have developed over millennia. Ultimately, this event is focused on preserving traditions and affirming individual national character through musical expressionism - all to revitalize its cultural language.
In 2023, XXX Viljandi Folk Music Festival will be devoted to the vibrant celebration, party customs, and anticipation for a brighter tomorrow. The organizer wants the folks who join Viljandi Folk Music Festival to leave with their spirits brightened enough that it carries them through until next July's festival! With 30 opportunities to start anew and joyfully commingle tradition, music, and people into such an ethereal combination — the journey has been nothing short of inspiring. This event will be dedicated to merrymaking, time-honored customs, and anticipation for what lies ahead!
Don't miss out on the Viljandi Folk Music Festival, a four-day celebration of traditional folk music! Experience over 75 concerts on eight stages featuring nearly 50 artists from Estonia and abroad. Plus, enjoy additional activities available to all attendees!
