Festival for the last Sunset in Budva

"Budva's last dance for 2025" 25 -29 September Budva, Montenegro

From September 25 to 29, the stunning Adriatic coastline and ancient stone walls of Budva, Montenegro, will resonate with the vibrant energy of traditional music, dance, and costume for an unforgettable Folklore Festival.

We are thrilled to welcome distinguished folklore ensembles from Romania and Turkiye who will come together to share their rich cultural heritage. This gathering of talented performers will create a spectacular event that celebrates a shared global spirit.

Against the breathtaking backdrop of the Budva Riviera and its historic Old Town, the festival will be a dynamic celebration of European unity and cultural exchange, promising to create lasting memories for every performer and spectator.

Audiences will be captivated as each group performs with profound passion, showcasing the unique identity of their homeland. The performances, held in Budva’s charming open-air venues and within the iconic central squares of the Old Town, will create a mesmerizing tapestry of European heritage. The days and nights will be filled with enthusiastic applause as the performers share their incredible passion and history.

The festival will conclude with a joyful ceremony where every participant will be honored. This will celebrate not only their magnificent performances but also the new, enduring friendships forged on the Montenegrin coast. As the final notes of music fade into the sea breeze, the ensembles will say their goodbyes, departing with strengthened bonds and a renewed belief in the unifying power of cultural tradition.
