The song and dance festival tradition has been included in the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage list.

The song and dance festival is more than just a summer event that takes place four times in Tallinn in ten years; it is a way of being that helps Estonians better understand themselves and carries all the values that we consider important as a nation – love for our country, language, culture, and customs.

The event is attended by nearly ten thousand dancers and thirty thousand singers. You have to be there to understand it all!
