In celebration of 50 years of folklore, almost 50 of our past Vila Velebita dancers have come together in a labour of love to revive a little piece of what has made folklore dancing so special to so many for half a century - and that is the memories made, the friendships gained. Ranging in age from their late 20s to their 60s (and in some cases multiple generations in one family), we are so proud to have Vila Velebita Alumni showcase the liveliness and tradition of the region of Slavonija.

U povodu proslave 50 godina folklora, gotovo 50 bivših plesača Vile Velebita okupilo se s ljubavlju kako bi oživjeli djelić onoga što folklorni ples čini posebnim već pola stoljeća – a to su stvorene uspomene, stečena prijateljstva i očuvanje hrvatskog duha daleko od domovine. U rasponu od kasnih 20-ih pa sve do 60-ih godina života – a u nekim slučajevima i s više generacija iz iste obitelji – s ponosom su predstavili živost i tradiciju Slavonije!

Tony Ivičević & Marijana Jurković

To launch our “50 years of folklore” celebration, Calgary’s featured performing group, Vila Velebita opened the show with a special presentation of Međimurje. This choreography holds deep significance for our Alumni dancers, as it has been a staple in our repertoire for years, and was even taken on a past tour to Croatia, at Zagreb’s celebrated Lisinski theatre. Vila Velebita dedicated this performance to all past alumni who proudly represented Croatian folklore in Calgary and laid the foundation for generations to come.

Kako bismo proslavili naših ‘50 godina folklora’, naša glavna skipina, Vilu Velebita su otvarali program sa posebnom prezentacijom Međimurja. Ovu posvećuje svim bivšim članovima koji su s ponosom predstavljali hrvatski folklor u Calgaryju i postavili temelje za buduće generacije.
