Mera World Music Festival in Mera
Mera World Music Festival turns a small Transylvanian village thirteen kilometers from Cluj-Napoca into an international music hub for four days each summer. Centered on a converted old barn, it brings Latin American, Mongolian, Georgian, Balkan, and French Romani music into conversation with the folk traditions of the Carpathian Basin.
Mera is not a city with an obvious claim to a music festival: it is a small village in Cluj county, a short drive from Cluj-Napoca, better known before the festival for its rural Transylvanian character than for hosting international touring musicians.
