Each year dancers from far and wide come together to entertain the public with traditional rituals, colourful costumes and lively music.

All welcome!

Once a year we don't travel to the Romans, but exceptionally to the era in which the Saalburg was rebuilt. At the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, archeology as a discipline was still in its infancy and more and more people were interested in the Roman buildings on the Saalburg Pass.

The festival aims to give an opportunity for a large number of performers of different ages, dealing with Bulgarian folk music and dances, to perform. To motivate their creative development and encourage their efforts to preserve folk art. 

From ornate Victorian mansions to everyday inns, frontier forts to 20th-century leaders’ homes, there’s a state historic site to fit every interest.
