Mioritmic Festival in Cluj-Napoca
Mioritmic is a three-day electronic music festival in Cluj-Napoca running since 2015, held at Cluj Arena each October and named after Miorita, the centuries-old Romanian folk ballad about a shepherd and a foretold betrayal. It has built a reputation for avant-garde bookings alongside high-production sound, visuals and stadium-scale lighting design.
Miorita is one of the touchstones of Romanian folk literature, a centuries-old pastoral ballad about a shepherd and a foretold betrayal that most Romanians first encounter in school and that has shaped how the country thinks about its own rural, mythic identity.
