Cidade da Coruña International Folklore Festival
The "Cidade da Coruña" International Folklore Festival began in 1987, an initiative of the EIDOS Association of Choirs and Dances, and is an integral part of the María Pita Festival, which takes place throughout the month of August. In 1989, it was recognized as an Associate Member of the Spanish Section of CIOFF (International Council of Organizations of Folklore Festivals and Traditional Arts), and in 1991 it became a Full Member of the aforementioned organization, a status it still holds. The objectives that led the EIDOS Association of Choirs and Dances to organize this event, with the sponsorship of the City Council of Coruña, were... The City Council of A Coruña aims to bring the cultures of other peoples, communities, and nations closer to the people of A Coruña and all those who visit us during the month of August, through songs, dances, and clothing, which would not be an easy task otherwise; to establish bonds of friendship and coexistence among the members of the various groups; to facilitate understanding above political, religious, or ideological beliefs; and, at the same time, to ensure that the name of our city is present in international organizations related to popular culture.
