From spring to winter, from north to south, festivals and communal celebrations are important parts of public life. Every year more than 30 festivals bring people together over crafts, cuisine, dance, and much more. See Armenia through a local’s eyes at one of our My Armenia-supported festivals.

Get a taste of Armenian tolma at the Tolma Festival in the Lori region, learn about local herbs at the Haybuis Festival in the spectacular Tavush region, enjoy swimming in Sevan Lake and listen to talented artists at the Sevan Music Festival, taste wines made from the world’s most ancient grapes at the Areni Wine Festival, and see how wool becomes carpet at the Sheep Shearing Festival. Browse this page to see the many festivals that My Armenia supports and head to the festival association’s website, FestivAr, to view an updated schedule and plan your visit.
