DANCE2005PRAGUE
INTERNATIONAL FOLKLORE DANCE FESTIVAL


The festival took place last weekend in Prague. Organisers wish to thank once again all the participating ensembles for joining the festival. The parade was very colourul and fantastic, performances were great, the viewers on the Old Town Square enjoyed it enormously. Great atmosphere! We encourage all the participants to come back with opinions and comments of whatever nature. We promise to consider them all. We have over 1200 photographs taken during the festival by our skilled specialised photographer Karel Kasak. These are wonderful and you can see them below. The preparations of Dance2006Prague have already started and we plan to finalise the programme and arrangements early October.

The message from organizers:
We organizers loved to work with you and hope to see all of you again next year or in the future.

Enjoy the photographs!

Mrs Bobbie Evans, Tipyn o Popeth, Wales, UK

Just a little note to thank you and your committee for all the hard work undertaken to arrange a most enjoyable festival for us to participace in. Everything was so well organised for us – a mammoth task for you all with so many groups taking part.

Mrs Delphine Bonnet, Cabeolum Folk, France

Many thanks for this festival which was so well organised. Our group has really appreciated the event.

Mr Theo Smet, Canteclear , Belgium

I want to thank you once again, on behalf of all our participants for the very good organisation of all aspects of the festival. We were honoured to have been invited to participate. We discussed how we could manage to spread this good information to our collegue Flemish groups, and we certainly will do that.

Mr Berrie Willemsen, De Speelluden, Netherlands

We want to thank you for the wonderful time we had with the whole groop in Praque with the festival and the excursions after the festival.

Mrs Emy Karlsson, Östersunds Folkdansgille, Sweden

We were satisfied and we send to all of You a Big "Thanks" for the festival.

Mr Martin Kucher, Volkstanzgruppe, Austria

We enjoyed our stay very, very, very much and will keep Prague in good memory. We hope, we gave your international audience something worth remembering from their stay in Prague. Good bye, we might meet again in Prague 2006.

Mr Michiel Visser, Internationale dansgroep Hai la joc', Netherlands

On behalf of the whole group I would like to thank you and the other members of the organizing committee as well as all the other volunteers (or paid perhaps) who helped making the festival an enormous success. We are very grateful to have had the opportunity to participate. For our part, there was not a single flaw in all the arrangements you and the committee made in order to make the festival unforgettable!

Göran Skogsfors, Folkdanslaget Värendsgillet, Sweden

Thank you very much for the wonderful experience we had in Prague. Everything in Prague was working very well and we are happy to have taken part in this event. Everything was well planed and organised and we always knew what was going on.We met a lot of other dancers and saw some of their programs and perhaps some of these contacts will develop into something more in the future.

Wim Hoitink , Wi'j hold 't bi'j 't olde, Netherlands

Thanks for a great festival! Please accept our thanks to you for putting a lot of effort and energy in organizing this festival. It was worth it! We hope our group will be able to participate in next year's festival. All members are enthousiastic about it. Thanks for having us in Prague!

Speros Vlassopoulos, Kyklos, Canada

I just returned home from my holiday in Greece. I wanted to send you an e.mail thanking you once again for making our experience in Prague a memorable one. Our entire group loved the city and were quite pleased with all the arrangements. They enjoyed performing at the festival and have indicated that they would love to one day return. One final comment. Eva was a wonderful guide. Our dancers fell in love with her. She went out of her way to make our trip extra special. So thank you again and have a great winter.
