Young people from 15 to 25 years of age are invited to apply for annual festival for youth Etnoday, which will take place in Cēsis District and Drabey from 8 to 10 September. Since 2010, young people from a variety of Latvian folklore clusters have been met. This year's programme offers not only access to the various skills of craftsmen (such as the making of trees and other traditional instruments), but also to practise co-playing and to visit the familiar lectures that will help our traditions to be revived today.
The ethnoday audience is directly young people, so the promotion of traditional cultural values is carried out in a more modern form and in a language and expression that is comprehensible to the audience. This event has established a new tradition in Latvia that links the new generation of different Latvian regions to the traditional culture of the single circulation. The local tradition of learning skills and traditional music allows young people to see new links between themselves and the music they play.
This year, the Etnoday of young people will be held in Cēsis District, Drabeu parish and Cēsis in cooperation with Cēsis District Cultural Administration and the “box” of traditional cultural initiatives.
