III° International Folklore Festival
"Le spiagge d’Italia"
(23 - 27 September 2010)
Riccione - Italy
The Festival has no competitive character and age limit. In festival can participate collectives of different genres: academic and folk choirs, vocal groups, soloists, choreographic collectives, soloists of folk and modern dance, orchestras and string, wind and folk ensembles, folk groups and others. The Festival is an important meeting occasion for the appreciation and the socio-cultural and tourist promotion of the area, an occasion to examine closely new cultures in order to better understand our differences, and create friendships and international collaborations.
The Festival serves as a platform for promotion and popularisation of contemporary art processes. Our basic tasks are to promote and integrate local contemporary art processes in the international art scene, to collect, update and disseminate information about contemporary art, as well as to develop an open-minded critically thinking environment, thus stimulating interchange between art and society.
Each participating group will be awarded a Honorary Diploma of Festival Participant, valuable souvenir and a gift.
Within the framework of the Festival each ensemble is expected to be ready to take part in:
- Opening parade in the streets of the city.
- Concerts - up to 15/20 minutes each.
- Meeting with the Mayor of Riccione (for art directors and group's officials).
