Orgainser Zana Elez (who operates a popular boutique on William Street in Kilkenny) explained that the events serve as ‘an opportunity to celebrate culture, connect with the community, and experience a slice of the Balkans right here in Ireland’.

Zana stated that events like these help to solidify the relationships between people living locally from different Balkan countries, as well as giving locals and those from other countries an opportunity to sample their culture and traditions.
