Janosik's days in Terchowa

This is one of the largest cultural events in Slovakia. The festival began to be organized by enthusiasts of shepherd culture as early as the 1960s and since 1992 the festival has become an international event. The concerts take place in an amphitheater with a capacity of up to 6000 spectators. In addition to music, the event combines the presentation of folk art, visual arts, photography and various crafts. Part of the program is also a solemn concert and mass for "bearers of folk traditions". The unique atmosphere of the festival means that every year numerous guests from Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic travel here.

The event takes place at the beginning of August and lasts all weekend. The event price list is varied and admission prices range from 25E for the whole event, to 9E for one day. Detailed prices can be found on the organizer's website: https://www.janosikovedni.sk/
