Góbéfest, Manchester's original urban folk music and dance festival with strong Central and Eastern European leanings, is back.
Established in 2017, Góbéfest has its roots firmly in Transylvania and Hungary, but over the years has expanded its reach to cherry pick some of the finest performing artists from around the Carpathian Basin and beyond.
The festival will for the first time be selling day or weekend tickets for the Friday and Saturday. Sunday - which has become known as Dance Day - will remain free.
The weekend promises an expertly curated mix of bands and solo artists, folk dance troupes, choirs and more. Independent food and drink traders will be serving up favourites from around the Carpathian Basin, from giant pans of goulash, to the fried flat breads known as lángos and Transylvanian barbecued chimney cakes.
