Etnika is a festival which embarked on its mission of bringing fresh world music to the city of Maribor in 2005.

The festival is produced by Pekarna Magdalena Network and takes place annually at various Maribor venues, among them Gustaf Hall, Satchmo Jazz Club, Kino Gledališče, and the Cantante Restaurant.

Programme

Etnika hosted a number of different groups, all of whom performed in Slovenia for the first time: Poum Tchack (France), Pressburger Klezmer Band (Slovakia), Arasinda (Hungary); (in 2006); Banjara - The Gypsies of Radjastan (India), Eszter Biro (Hungary) and Montevideo (Uruguay, Chile, USA, Croatia, Austria) (2007); and Karandila Gypsy Brass Orchestra (Bulgaria), Stepanida Borisova & Ramesh Shotham (Sibiria, India) and Bose/Ghosh/Mallick Trio (India).

In 2009 the programme also included 3 groups from Slovenia which play the world music genre: Burkina & Guinea Project, Zdenek Bily Dixieland Band, and Cana Flamenca. In 2010 it featured 3 European premières: singers Huong Thanh from Vietnam and Zohreh Jooya from Iran, as well as the Algerian dilruba master Mahamad Hadi, a.k.a. Mad Sheer Khan.
