This year's edition was attended by folk dance and choral groups, orchestras, majorette teams, children's and youth groups from Bulgaria, Turkey, Ukraine, Moldova, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Indonesia. The participation of the Ruse ensembles was carried out with the financial support of the Municipal Foundation "Ruse-City of the Free Spirit".

The event took place on a specially built stage next to the iconic Trojan horse on the coast of Çanakkale. In two consecutive evenings, the festival program starts with a magnificent parade through the streets of the Turkish city. The ensembles were presented on stage, where they showed traditional costumes and national flags.

Dance group "Impulse" participated with two of its groups - "Lolipop" and "Advanced", who presented a joint block of dances in the concert evenings. The young people from "Zora" presented a program of dances specially prepared for the festival. The performances of the two ensembles enjoyed thunderous applause.

The leaders of the ensembles Petya Boneva and Milena Lazarova (DG "Impulse") and Reneta Stefanova (FDS"Zora") were specially awarded with a plaque and a diploma for participation.

During their visit to the Turkish city, the participants had the opportunity to study dances of different countries, as well as to visit local landmarks and the Municipality of Çanakkale.

The festival is not a competition and its purpose is to bring different groups from different countries together to show their culture and nation through dances, music and interesting national costumes.

With this participation, the performers from both ensembles successfully completed the creative season.
