6th National Tribal and Folk Music Dance Festival 2028 will be held at MADIKERI from 2/01/2018 to 14/01/2018.In 2013, under the name of Kaadina Makkala ( Children of the Forest) Radio Habba , AIR Madikeri organized an event – The Folk and Tribal Dance and Music Festival. It proved to be a big hit amongst the people of Madikeri with its eye opening cultural variety of presentations, its meticulous planning and warm friendliness of approach.
Recognizing its relevance, potential & promise, the South Zone Cultural Centre took over the event’s organization with the able and active support of AIR Madikeri from 2014 to 2016. We feel this is an event that has now come to stay as a regular feature that could alter the cultural landscape of Coorg.
We sincerely wish to make the 2018 edition a trendsetter in excellence and a grand success.
