- Watch, listen and taste
The theme was cherries when Kerteminde in 2005 successfully joined the numerous festival towns of the world. The sweet, beautiful, attractive cherry has inspired composers, poets, not to mention painters, and in the world of art it has always been a symbol of life and love.
The cherry is circle-shaped and soft like the Funen landscape and associates to summer, love and passion.
Kerteminde's third cherry festival will take place Friday July 17th to Sunday July 19th with a wealth of activities.
True to the town's fame for a high cultural level, the festival will offer a lot of events in the fields of art, music and gastronomy. Music with popular soloists, art exhibitions showing works by local artists combined with a workshop.
