Association
The Schlitzerland Local History and Traditional Costume Festival Association
The Schlitzerland Local History and Traditional Costume Festival Association
Behind this rather antiquated association name hides a modern, powerful and very experienced music and folklore festival organizer.
The five-member executive board is complemented by four owners with different areas of responsibility to the overall board.
An organization team of about 20 people supports the overall board in the realization of the festival. This organization team covers all essential fields of work competently – whereby it is not only about organizing, but above all about actively helping.
The association cooperates particularly closely with the town of Schlitz, its magistrate and administration, as well as with the Schlitzerländer Trachten- und Volkstanzkreis e.V. – but also with many other associations from Schlitz and Schlitzerland, which contribute to the success of the festival in the most diverse ways.
The association’s membership in CIOFF Germany guarantees it access to the best folklore groups in the world.
To explain: the CIOFF® (Conseil International des Organisations de Festivals de Folklore et d’Arts Traditionnels) is a non-governmental organisation in official partnership with UNESCO – with associate status and includes all folklore festival organisers worldwide).
Members
become part of a great team
Our association currently has about 75 members, which is actually far too few for the important task of cultural and people-to-people exchange. So new members and sponsors are very welcome.
The annual membership fee is just EUR 15.00 for private individuals and EUR 50.00 for associations or businesses. We look forward to hearing from you.
