From Belarus there will be folklore traditionalists ESSA, PRAGNAVIT and DRUVA, a project of OSIMIRA group.

The Baltic scene will also present the brightest - new programmes and album presentations from Lithuanian folk-rock group ATALYJA, ambiental DONIS, eminent pop-rock singer Andrius Mamontovas, composer A.Klova with VYDRAGA, and marvelous band SKYLĖ, which are cult artists in Lithuania. Heavy pagan front would be held by OBTEST and ANDAJA! And industrial, ambient, electronic, neo-cabaret scene will peal with VILKDUJA, WEJDAS, GIRNŲ GIESMĖS, DRIEZHAS, SPANXTI, etc. Not to forget ritual pagan heritage by charming KŪLGRINDA, and many other ethno groups and ensembles, who will perform on the new stage, dedicated to folklore and acoustic music.
