Góbéfest 2025: 9th Edition Returns to Manchester This June!

We are thrilled to announce that Góbéfest 2025 will take place from 20th–22nd June at Cathedral Gardens, Manchester! Now in its 9th year, Góbéfest has grown from a grassroots celebration inspired by and rooted in Transylvania into an international folk festival, showcasing a vibrant mix of cultures from Eastern Europe and beyond and attracting over 10,000 visitors annually.

This year, we’re introducing a "Pay What You Feel" model, making the festival more accessible while allowing attendees to support the event in a way that suits them.

Expect an incredible lineup of live music, dance, food, workshops, and cultural experiences. Enjoy performances from world-class folk musicians, energetic dance troupes, hands-on craft activities, storytelling, and, of course, authentic traditional cuisine.

Join us as we celebrate community, heritage, and cultural exchange in a vibrant festival atmosphere. Save the date and stay tuned for more exciting announcements!
