Music and dances of Europe

The evening programmes could be named after Europe's music and dances since each evening a different band comes on stage to play which is often followed by teaching dances to the audience. The Bohém Ragtime Band has been a recurring guest of the Children's Meeting, and many of them were devoted participants of the 1991 Children's Meeting. The Csík band's concert and the Hungarian dance hall following the inauguration ceremony have become a tradition throughout the years. The concert and dances of the Syrtos band has also been a real attraction of the Festival from the beginnings. The Budapest Klezmer Band, which was hardly known when a decade ago they first came to the Festival, has by now become internationally famous. They accepted the invitation in 2004 again with pleasure, since their performances always receive a warm welcome by the audience of the crowded Main Square. Regular performer of our festival are the Zurgó ensemble and the Musical Studio of Tapolca. We also had the pleasure to welcome Besh O'drom, "Álmodozók" Student Theatre from Komarno, Vujicsics orchestra, M.É.Z. orchestra in our festival.
