Winnipeg.hu – Your gateway to Hungary

The Kárpát Hungarian Folk Dancers of Winnipeg, founded in 1987, is a group of dedicated young people whose goal is to learn about their culture. We preserve and pass on our cultural heritage through the performance of Hungarian folkdance and song, in the authentic tradition. Costing of a child’s and an adult group totaling 35 members, the Kárpát Dancers (members of the Folk Arts Council) are regular performers in Winnipeg, especially during Folklorama, and in rural Manitoba. We have also performed annually at the Western Canadian Hungarian Folk Festival in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, as well as in the United States.

Our performances are captivating, featuring vibrant Hungarian folk music and dancing, always worn are beautifully embroidered authentic costumes from the many diverse regions of Hungary, and among the highlights are the intricate shepherd’s stick dance and the amazing girls’ bottle dance.
