SlonnyFest 2025 for Children and Adults

 

If you happen to be in Tartu and want to attend something out of the ordinary for most people, SlonnyFest is the event for you and your children. SlonnyFest is mostly centred around gymnastics and dance, with the majority of participants under 16, and as young as three years old.

The event will start at noon on 7 December in Tartu’s A. Le Coq Arena. Several age groups will perform and compete. There are even some adult groups, age 30+. This is a great way to get your children interested in moving around in today’s age of endless screentime, zombie-like worship of devices, and lack of exercise. The flashy costumes will add to the excitement for little ones.

Rhythmic gymnastics helps teach children amazing coordination. It’s also fascinating for them to watch in groups. There will be dance competitions and general gymnastics as well. Performances will be solo and in small and large groups, by age, and mixed age.

Tickets are €5 at the door, and entry is free for children seven and under. More information about specific entries is available here.
