This year we are organizing the 27th edition of the Körös Valley Festival, a rich celebration of folk culture in South Alföld, which welcomes visitors to Gyula with a diverse program offerings.
The square in front of the medieval brick castle fills with life during the three-day event, and the festival showcases virtually every element of Hungarian folk culture. During stage programs, from the youngest to the eldest each age group has the opportunity to present and share our rich folk heritage with the audience. Representatives of folk crafts will also be present during the three-day festivities, offering craft demonstrations and sales alike. In the handicraft market, timeless, unique products await visitors. Families are entertained by children's activities, street performers, storytellers, and a playground featuring period games, where they can also try their hand at traditional games of skill and folk games.
In realizing the event, alongside the Békés County Folk Art Association, the Békés County Folk Arts Foundation, the Békés County Folk Dancers' Alliance, GYULAKULT - Erkel Ferenc Cultural Centre and Museum Non-Profit Ltd., and the Gyula Castle Theatre are collaborating.
The Festival creates an important meeting point year after year for craftspeople, folk culture communities, and visitors, contributing to the preservation and transmission of the values of traditional folk culture.
