Mladenovac - SERBIA
ABOUT US:
    The Folk Dancing Company "Vojvoda Janko Katic" from Mladenovac is one of the oldest folklore groups in Serbia. It was founded on January 1st 1896. Last year we celebrated 110 years of existence. On that occasion, for the first time in Mladenovac, and in the organization of our Folk Company the first international children’s festival of folklore took place. Three folklore groups participated from abroad and five folklore groups from Serbia.
    The II International Children’s Festival of Folklore-Folklore Mladenovac 2007 will take place from July 3rd to July 8th. The Festival has the character of presentation, and will be held in the hall of The Sports Centre, which can receive up to 2000 viewers. We are expecting the participation of ten folklore groups from Serbia and abroad. This Festival is organized for children up to 15 years of age (musicians can be older, and there is no age limit for them), where they will represent traditional dances, music and traditional costumes of their native countries and regions.
     During The Festival, the children can relax in the morning on the swimming pool of our Sports Centre, where they will be accompanied by their hosts, and have all the medical supervision. Two days of the program will be held outside of Mladenovac: one day in Topola which is 20km faraway from Mladenovac, and the other day in Velika Krsna which is 15km faraway.
