The story

Mokra N'Fest in Pogradec/Mokra

An August festival at Golik Bridge near Pogradec celebrating Mokra province's Illyrian heritage through the traditional 101-health toast, local dishes like lakror in saç, canoeing on the Shkumbin River and a painter's colony, drawing over 4,000 participants in some years. Its Golik Bridge setting connects the celebration directly to the province's genuine Illyrian archaeological heritage.

Mokra n'Fest gathers thousands of participants each August at Ura e Golik, the historic Golik Bridge, celebrating the distinctive cultural heritage of Mokra, one of the most historically significant provinces in southeastern Albania, an area recognized for its Illyrian tombs and centuries-old traditions that the festival specifically works to keep alive for both local and international visitors.
