The 2024 EFN conference will take place in Kaustinen, Finland

on Tuesday 24 and Wednesday 25 September.

Kaustinen - deep in the heart of Western Finland - is a very special centre for the living traditions of intangible cultural heritage and folk arts and home to our hosts and EFN members the Finnish Folk Music Institute and the renowned Kaustinen Folk Festival. 


For the 2024 conference EFN and Kaustinen offer a unique opportunity to explore this remarkable part of rural Finland and its importance to folk traditions, whilst meeting and sharing ideas with a host of other people and organisations active in the folk arts from across Europe.
