Kerala International Folk Festival concludes with vibrant mix of folk and global arts

The Kerala International Folk Festival wrapped up at the Police Parade Ground in Thiruvananthapuram, showcasing a vibrant blend of traditional Indian folk arts and global performances. Organised by the Kerala Folklore Academy, the festival brought together folk traditions from across India along with six international troupes. Highlights included Kerala’s traditional art forms such as Seethakali and Mangalam Kali, known for their narrative expression, ceremonial rhythm and coordinated movements. International performances added a global flavour, with troupes from Russia, China, Brazil, Spain and Ghana taking the stage. A Russian ballet performance, blending classical, modern and contemporary styles, emerged as a major crowd-puller. Visitors said the festival offered rare exposure to diverse art forms on a single platform. While attendance was moderate initially, crowds increased over the weekend as the festival drew to a close on Monday. #kerala #folkfestival #thiruvananthapuram #indianfolkart #globalarts #culture #performingarts #ptinews #ptivideos #presstrustofindia Subscribe to PTI's YouTube channel for in-depth reports, exclusive interviews, and special visual stories that take you beyond the headlines. #PTIVideos PTI News : ptinews.com PTI Fact Check : ptinews.com/factcheck/factcheck.aspx PTI X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/PTI_News PTI Instagram:   / ptinews_multimedia   PTI Facebook:   / presstrustofindia
