Ohrid Fest
Ohridski Trubaduri - Ohrid Fest is a music festival that takes place in Ohrid, Republic of Macedonia every summer. It began in 1994 as a showcase for Macedonian summer folklore.

In 2003, an international evening was added to the program, which consists of foreign artists performing their songs along with the best placed songs from the pop evening.
