One of the most anticipated events on the international folklore art scene is back! From June 18 to 23, 2025, the picturesque Turkish city of Didim will host the 16th edition of the International Folk Dance Festival Didim – Türkiye, bringing together groups from around the world in a celebration of tradition, rhythm, and friendship. Dancers aged 14 and up will have the chance to present their cultures through dance and music, dressed in unique national costumes, while making new friends and experiencing the magic of the Aegean coast.

Participants will enjoy not only performances on stage but also a rich program beyond it – visits to the ancient Temple of Apollo, walks along the golden sands of Altınkum Beach, fun at Didim Aqua Park, boat trips, and shopping in the authentic local bazaar. Accommodation is in comfortable hotels with breakfast and dinner included, and each group will receive a DVD and photos from the festival as a cherished memory.

The organizers provide full assistance, protocol visits, gifts, and a guide for each group. All that’s left is to apply and dive into an unforgettable cultural adventure under the Aegean sun.
