With the outpouring of love and support we received when we announced the cancellation of the 2020 Folklorama Festival due to COVID-19, also came the burning question "what are we going to do this summer?"

Folklorama At Home - we can create a customized meal and performance within your budget and bring it to your driveway or backyard (meeting government regulations).
Folklorama At Work - we can help with the transition back to office life and create a stress-free environment tailored to your needs. Welcome back your hard-working employees with cultural food and music!
Folklorama At School - this program will take students on a cultural adventure. Through educational workshops and performances from our ethno-cultural entertainers, schools can select a customized experience that fits in with the curriculum.
