Brașov DaysZilele Brașovului

Brașov Days is an annual city festival held in Brașov celebrating the city’s history and culture. It typically includes open-air concerts, traditional dance displays (including the Junii Brașovului youth dance), and street performances in the historic center 1. The festival coincides with the city’s founding celebration in late April and is organized by the city government. Visitors experience Brașov’s urban traditions and modern culture together, with flagship events on Piața Sfatului (Council Square) such as live music and dance performances. The event strengthens local pride; for example, the iconic Junii youth gallop and dance is a highlight that links Brașov to its 19th-century heritage.

This is a municipal celebration focusing on Brașov’s multicultural identity. It often includes Romanian and Brașov-specific folklore like the Junii dance and also modern cultural acts. Historically, Brașov Days marks the city’s founding (Szegény-Diazma oath) and blends Hungarian, Saxon, and Romanian cultural influences in an urban festival setting. The context is civic pride: local institutions (city hall, philharmonic) host classical, folk, and popular events to unite residents and visitors in the town’s multicultural legacy.
