How much is the participation fee, and what does it include?

The participation fee for foreign participants costs 180€, and it includes accommodation, food (three meals per day), T-shirt, accreditation, as well as participation in the workshop and all the events during the festival. The participation fee does not include travel expenses.

Can I apply for the participant even though I’m from Serbia?
