Some destinations are more romantic than others and the Costa Brava is perhaps the most romantic by definition. The Mediterranean beauty will leave you and your friends speechless at times – mesmerizing architecture, night-long parties for the young and “not so young” people who return time and time again to the city to sing and dance but also to enjoy its food and wine.

Your group will be staying in the most rugged and stunning part of the Costa Brava in the touristic haven of Lloret de Mar. The city is close enough to Barcelona which is ideal to explore this wonderful capital , but also far enough to relax in the slower-pace of a beach resort.

The International Folklore Festival is located in the Plaça de Pere Torrent, in  the heart of Lloret de Mar. Participants are from Russia, Indonesia, India, Poland, Ukraine, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, Bosnia and Hercegovina, Georgia, Romania, Slovenia, Montenegro, Italy, Sweden, Moldavia, Armenia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Hungary…
