A first-time traditional music festival held in June 2025 at the Izvoranu Palace (Cula Izvoranu) in Brabova. Over two evenings, regional folk ensembles perform classic Oltenia folk songs and dances. Organized by the county council to highlight rural cultural heritage, it offers traditional cuisine and local crafts. For visitors, it is a community-focused event with authentic local music and warm hospitality.
This new festival aims to bring attention to the cultural life of Dolj’s small communities. Cula Izvoranu serves as an iconic rural heritage site, and the festival was launched to connect locals with their peasant music legacy. It underscores non-urban traditions rather than modern pop culture, offering insight into everyday Oltenian village life.
