The Virumaa Music Festival was created with the goal of bringing concert experiences performed by Estonia’s finest musicians to the Ida-Virumaa and Lääne-Virumaa regions.
The VII Virumaa Music Festival presents 14 diverse events across Ida- and Lääne-Virumaa, featuring performances by top Estonian musicians. The program includes chamber concerts, workshops, and inspiring art experiences brought directly to schools.
