45th Slovak Heritage Festival in New Jersey

The Slovak Heritage Festival was founded in 1978. This Autumn, the 45th

Slovak Heritage Festival will take place on September 24th, 2023 at The

Middlesex County Fairgrounds,

655 Cranbury Road, East Brunswick, New Jersey, United States.

The primary goal of the Festival is to preserve the traditions, language

and customs for future generations born here in the United States.

This year, we have invited the well known Folklore Group, Šarišan from Prešov and the singing group FS Litmanivka from Litmanová (district Stara Lubovna), which is a well-known pilgrimage site in Slovakia.

These groups encompass many performers, thus financial assistance

is needed to not only ensure that the performers can come to the US, but help defray

some of the costs of their expenses.

The SHF has continued through the efforts of the many volunteers, and

all costs for the festival come from two sources; funds donated by The

Slovak Government and through the entrance and vendor fees charged.

Costs involved in running the festival include park fees, township

application & amp; permits, stage for performance, tent rental, table & chair

rental, rental of bathroom facilities, marketing & amp; web promotion,

garbage removal and security.

We would be grateful for any help, for any

contribution that will help us make our guest's stay more pleasant, and

help defray some of the costs of the festival. We believe that we can do

this together, by working together for this common cause.
