The Qala International Folk Festival, sponsored by Gasan Mamo Insurance, took place last month. Organised by Qala council and the Qala Menhir Folk Group, the festival was characterised by folk dance, music and traditional food.
All this was brought to life by an intercultural programme that over time has managed to attract locals and visitors in an intimate, local square setting.
“Our insurance firm is proud to support this type of initiative, as folk culture involves creative hobby activities based on folk traditions, heritage culture and the preservation and recording of national and local cultural traditions. Once more the festival turned out to be a successful one and the music, dance, singing and colourful cloths transformed Qala into a fascinating centre of culture,” said managing director Julian Mamo.
