The Ethnic Communities Festival aims to preserve and value the cultural traditions of the minorities (Jews, Russians, Lipovans, Greeks, Roma, Polish, etc). Each ethnic community presents its specifics: costume, music and folk dances. The event also includes parade of the traditional costumes of the minorities from Romania, followed by a series of concerts held by the groups that participate in the festival, a debating session, with representatives of the Romanian national minorities and politicians, a craftsmen fair and a documentary exhibition.
