After three successful editions, Balkanik! Festival returns for a fourth time, on September 12, with three days and three nights of explosive concerts and insightful arts and crafts workshops, at Uranus Garden, a magical hidden courtyard in the heart of Bucharest, surrounded by surreal architecture from the 19^th century which survived the communist planning of the city in the 1980s.

The festival is organized by Metropolis Cultural Association who this year will expect around 12 thousand people from all over Romania and many tourists from European countries, especially France and England, to attend and enjoy the unique sounds brought to the main stage: electro-gypsy swingcore, gypsy fusion, brass music and Balkan-psychedelic. It is a festival where you can find in one place jazz lovers, ravers, globe trotters, couchsurfers, families with kids.
