The International Folklore Festival is an excellent starting point for any folk dance group. Representatives from different countries come to demonstrate their skills and exchange experiences with each other.
Instructions
Step 1
International Dance Festival 2012 takes place on the Greek peninsula of Halkidiki. Local governments are responsible for running it together with Greek ethnic dance groups. The world famous resort of Hanioti, not far from Thessaloniki, was chosen as the venue. The atmosphere of the festival is greatly facilitated by the colorful nature and sea air of the peninsula.
Step 2
Several open areas for competition performances have already been built in Hanioti. Each arriving ensemble will be able to perform exactly two times - during the opening of the festival on the stage of the main amphitheater and directly during the dance competition. In their free time, participants will enjoy exciting excursions around the peninsula, historical monuments and sights at the expense of the organizer of the festival - the local municipality.
Step 3
The first step to taking part in the festival will be to select a dance group. The age of the members of your team must be at least 5 years old, but also not exceed the age of majority. Having picked up a team, start training. You must present an ethnic dance that will be at least ten minutes long. Each participant is charged a fee for participation in the competition in the amount of 50 euros.
Step 4
Accommodation, meals and transfer to the island will also have to be paid by the participants themselves. In this regard, it will be expedient to search for a sponsor. You can "throw a cry" on the Internet and the media. Those who wish will probably appear very quickly - but in exchange for funding, they will ask you to place advertisements on your team's website, sponsor company logos on T-shirts, mugs, etc.
Step 5
When you find funds for participation, fill out the form, the form of which can be downloaded on the Internet. It is necessary to indicate the name of the leader of the dance group, the list of participants and contact information. Send your completed application to [email protected]. You can also do this through a special form on the website www.mouzenidis.com, where there is a ready-made template. You can send your application by regular mail to: Greece, Thessaloniki, 546 26 7, Karatasou str.
