Dances on Cosău River Valley Folk Festival

DESCRIPTION

In the heart of Maramureș, the village of Sârbi transforms into a vibrant stage of authentic traditions on the third day of Easter, hosting an exceptional folk festival. Artistic groups from the counties of Maramureș, Bihor, and Cluj come together to deliver an impressive spectacle of music, dance, and traditional attire, bringing back the festive spirit of olden times.

The event opens with a grand parade of folk costumes, turning the village streets into a lively, colorful display of heritage, where every outfit tells a story passed down through generations. In this village, which has preserved its wooden houses, traditional crafts, and historic installations, visitors are invited to experience a truly authentic celebration by joining the locals in the traditional dance of the holiday.

The lively sounds of the cetera (traditional fiddle) and zongora (folk guitar) fill the air, while the horă and învârtita dances bring people together in an infectious rhythm. The atmosphere is brimming with joy and hospitality as villagers welcome guests with traditional food, fine drinks, and stories of their beloved village. This festival is more than just an event—it is a magical journey through the culture and soul of Maramureș, a celebration that is truly worth experiencing!
