About
The Western Canadian Croatian Folklore Festival prides itself on showcasing the beauty and diversity of the Croatian culture. With over 300 performers from throughout Western Canada and numerous traditional national costumes (some hand made by the ensembles and others directly from Croatia), a collection of various traditional instruments (played by the Tamburica Orchestras), and the vocal variety in the performances (both acapella and accompanied) the depth and range of the Croatian culture is easily experienced.
For its 41st iteration the CCFFW and Croatian Dawn are proud to once again be hosting in Winnipeg Manitoba.
Featuring special guest group Rusalka!
Rusalka is a dance group that showcases cultural pride, telling stories through the movement of Ukrainian dance. The group has a large repertoire of dances and colorful costumes that represent a diverse range of the Ukraine’s regions, styles and moods, making the shows entertaining for all audiences.
Built on a foundation of discipline, devotion and camaraderie, Rusalka has become an integral part of the Winnipeg Arts Community. Deep within each dancer burns a passion to showcase the power and beauty of Ukrainian dance and they are eager to share with audiences the experience that is, Rusalka!
