It's a rare opportunity to experience a mesmerizing seven-century old ritual, incredible performance featuring beautiful costumes, hypnotic live music with flutes, string and percussion, and the amazing sight of the Dervishes whirling on the stage.

Event Poster

Whirling Dervishes

The ritual unites the three fundamental components of human nature: the mind (as knowledge and thought), the heart (through the expression of feelings, poetry and music), and the body (by activating life, by turning). These three elements are thoroughly joined both in theory and in practice and as perhaps in no other ritual or system of thought. Experiencing the Whirling Dervishes is like being transported on a magic carpet ride, with the exotic music creating a sense of inner rapture.
