This year’s concept of the festival, which focuses on fairy tales, interpreted through music and theatre, was implemented with the aim of bringing our tradition closer and reminding us of the famous archetypal story of the eternal victory of good over evil. The artists, emphasizing through their performance the universal values ​​that fairy tales preserve, pointed out to the audience the importance of optimism and the need to believe in something magical.
