The Folk You festival came to Bucharest for the first time last year, bringing out thousands looking for original, non mainstream music. It started in 2005 on a small scale in Vama Veche as a little stand against the tacky and the fake in popular culture. Although folk music remains at the heart of the festival, other genres that have an original sound or message have since joined the movement.
Entry is free.
