In Bulgaria there is a unique tradition often called the Roma bride market.

Once a year members of the Roma community gather in a large public square where families meet and discuss possible marriages.

Young women wear colorful dresses and jewelry while families socialize and introduce potential couples. For many participants this event is part of a long-standing cultural tradition passed down through generations.

In this video we explore one of the most unusual marriage traditions in Europe — the Roma bride market in Bulgaria.

(25 Oct 2013) ROMA ARTISTS TAKE TO THE WALLS
Roma artists from Hungary and across Europe on Thursday (24 OCT) were finishing up a project to paint large murals on the outside walls of 33 homes in Bodavalenke, a small Hungarian settlement in one of the poorest regions in the country.
Many of the settlement's 200 residents live in deep poverty and 90-percent of them are gypsies, also known as Roma.
The project was designed to help the Roma take pride in their culture, to showcase their skills and to attract tourists to the area.
Some of the other paintings have been created by famous Roma artists from Serbia and Scotland.
"One aim was to fight prejudice by showing how much Roma culture enriches our common culture. We also wanted to help Bodvalenke rise out of deep poverty," said Eszter Pasztor, who organized the project.
She has been praised for her work by local basket weaver Jozsef Rusznyak.
"The village was not like this before, there was nothing here. Since Eszter arrived the village is beautiful and it has everything it needs."
Pasztor would love the project to get bigger.
"If we can get some more funding from other sources, I'd like very much to invite Gabi Jimenez from France, Lita Cabellut from Spain, Alberto Morelli from Italy and a few other artists," she said.

The European Roma Institute for Arts and Culture (ERIAC) is releasing the masterclass "Antigypsyism in Italy through the History of the Roma Civil Rights Movement" with anthropologist Federica Scrimieri, produced in the framework of the project Reclaiming Our Past, Rebuilding Our Future: New Approaches to Fighting Antigypsyism (JEKHIPE).

This masterclass analyzes Italian antigypsyism from the 1920s to the present, examining the systemic violence and institutional bias that have marginalized Roma and Sinti communities. Federica Scrimieri traces the evolution of Romani resistance, from early "pioneer" networks to modern "artivists" who use digital media to challenge dominant narratives. By examining artistic production as a site of memory and political agency, the masterclass illustrates how these cultural movements complement the ongoing intergenerational fight against entrenched structural inequalities in housing, education, and the social system.

*The masterclass is available with English and Romani subtitles. Please note that, due to a limitation in YouTube’s subtitle interface, the Romani subtitles are currently listed as Romanian.*

JEKHIPE is a European Commission-funded initiative (CERV) led by ERGO Network, ERIAC, and CEPS, in collaboration with national partners: Slovo 21 (Czechia), Central Council for German Sinti and Roma (Germany), UCRI and Romni (Italy), Amare Romentza (Romania), FAGiC and Romane Siklovne (Spain), and Trajosko Drom (Sweden).

Together, these organizations address historical injustices, such as the lack of recognition for the Roma Holocaust and slavery, while promoting institutional representation in arts and education. By engaging policy-makers and grassroots communities, JEKHIPE seeks to contribute to the establishing of clear mechanisms for governmental accountability across Europe.

Thousands of Roma women in Slovakia were sterilized without their consent. In Roma culture, large families are a sign of wealth and happiness. The government has since apologized, but the victims are demanding compensation.

In this film, Richard O’Neill and Juice Vamosi discuss the rich history of the Romani and Roma people, exploring the connections between their linked but distinct heritage. Originating in India, the story of their roots takes us through the middle east and North Africa to contemporary Europe and Britain - and for Richard and Juice, to the North of England.

To celebrate Gypsy, Roma, Traveller History Month and to launch our Gypsy Jam series, Richard and Juice bring to life the rich musical traditions of the Romani and Roma cultures and present a jam session using acoustic instruments and shared music-making practices.

The film launches a large-scale partnership project between Oldham Coliseum Theatre and Roma-led charity, Kaskosan, which aims to support Roma people in Oldham and provide a platform for new Gypsy, Roma and Traveller talent.

Every June since 2008, people from across the UK have celebrated Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month. Through celebration, education and raising awareness, Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month helps to tackle prejudice, challenge myths and to amplify the voices of Gypsies, Roma and Travellers in wider society.

This year, the theme for Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month is ‘Make Some Space’, encouraging people across the UK to ‘Make Some Space’ for Gypsy, Roma and Traveller people in their day to day lives.

Dr. Ian Hancock speaks at the Petaluma Museum Association, in association with the Voice of Roma, as part of the exhibit 'Roma - Crossing the Borders', an exhibit of history, art, music, food, and culture, emphasizing the positive contributions of the Romani community, as well as providing insights into a little known culture that is often misunderstood.

Featuring the art of Xylena Apotholoz and Tina Burbank, without whom, the exhibit would not have been possible.

CNN documentary on the Roma comunity in Romania

Explore the annual tradition of the Kalaidzhi Roma clan in Stara Zagora, Bulgaria, where controversy surrounds the bride market. Young virgins are presented to potential suitors who bid on them, making it a focal point for Bulgaria's 18,000-strong Kalaidzhi community. Despite facing ongoing prejudice in Europe, the Kalaidzhi cling to their heritage, with the bride market representing one of their few remaining traditions.

Taking place in southeastern Bulgaria, the Kalaidzhi bride market sees young girls matched with boys coming from financially stable families. However, an increasing number of young Roma are challenging this age-old practice. For them, the annual market offers the sole opportunity to find a partner due to their Orthodox Christian beliefs and strict adherence to traditional values, which prohibit pre-marital relationships. Marriage within the group is essential, ruling out any possibility of marrying outside the Roma community, particularly non-Roma Bulgarians.

While dowry remains a significant factor in these arranged marriages, a growing segment of young Roma are pushing back against this traditional system. They aspire to make their own choices in love and marriage, opposing the notion of being bartered off at a young age, often as young as 14. For these girls, marriage signifies the end of autonomy, as they transition into roles as housewives and mothers, highlighting the clash between tradition and modernity within the Kalaidzhi community.

In this documentary-style episode, we explore the true hidden history of Gypsies (Roma)—where the journey began, how the migration unfolded across continents, and why their story has so often been misunderstood, misrepresented, or reduced to stereotypes.

You’ll learn about:

The origins and early migrations of the Roma people

How language, music, crafts, and community traditions helped Roma identity survive

Why persecution and discrimination shaped the way Roma history was recorded

The difference between myths vs documented history

How to speak about Roma history with accuracy and respect

We also examine how ancient manuscript cultures preserved identity and memory over centuries—drawing a careful comparison to the ethiopian bible tradition as an example of how communities protect texts, heritage, and continuity. While the ethiopian bible is not “Roma history,” it offers a useful lens for understanding how long-lived traditions endure. This is why the ethiopian bible is sometimes mentioned in broader conversations about preservation, cultural survival, and historical memory—much like the way the ethiopian bible survived through dedicated communities. In that sense, the ethiopian bible becomes a reminder that history is often kept alive by ordinary people guarding what matters. And just as the ethiopian bible endured, so did Roma identity—despite centuries of pressure.

Logline: “A Roma couple has a wedding that combines cultural and religious traditions and celebrates virginity, love and fertility.”

Synopsis: There are many stories about how Gypsies steal or buy their brides. But for one couple in the Roma neighborhood in Blagoevgrad, their wedding is a chance to celebrate their 5 years of dating with a mix of Indian, Roma and Western traditions. We follow Filka and Rumen over the course of their 3-day wedding as the bride talks about getting checked for virginity, being dabbed in henna and even the importance she places on a church ceremony. In this intimate look into a Roma wedding, we get a rare glimpse of gypsy life.

In the last two decades, the Roma issue turned to be considerably frequent research topic, attracting the attention of various researchers, policy-making experts, public institutions and international organizations, which greatly shaped the public discourse on Roma. However, the overall discourse and awareness on Roma situation, often presents a “curious consensus on who the Roma are and typically reinforcing stereotypes” (Surdu, 2014). The results and effects of academic products are not only confined in the field of research, but also in scientific analysis. Evidently, academic thought is logically connected and affects many other spheres of social life, i.e. politics, economy, culture, and broader social relations, including public opinion. The purpose and objective of this event is to open once again debate and look at:

a. Diverse approaches and experiences apropos emerging national and European policies for Roma inclusion vis-à-vis
b. Aspirations for representation and contribution of Roma in the academic circles.

Referring upon the legitimate participation principle “Nothing for us, without us”, Roma intellectuals are often questioning the added value and relevance of academic research and policy advice. Taking into consideration the increased access of Roma students (facilitated by different programs and scholarship), which results in new generation of Roma MA and PhD students, the question of representation of Roma in academia yet remains. This discussion tackle the following questions: Does the existing research on Roma reinforce the stereotype image of Roma or produce new knowledge? How Roma contribute to the Academia and what is the importance of having Roma in Academia? How Universities can facilitate the access of Roma in Academia?

According to some estimates, 11 million people worldwide consider themselves of the ethnic group known as "Roma." In Colombia the Roma are trying to preserve their culture and traditions as they make their home there. CGTN's Michelle Begue reports from Bogota.

In der Geschichte leiden Sinti und Roma lange unter Vertreibung und Diskriminierung: In ganz Europa werden sie seit Jahrhunderten ausgegrenzt. Im Mittelalter dürfen sie sich nicht niederlassen und werden dann als „fahrendes Volk” stigmatisiert. Auch die Bezeichnung „Zigeuner” ist eine negativ konnotierte Fremdzuschreibung. Eng mit diesem Begriff verknüpft ist der Völkermord an den Sinti und Roma im Nationalsozialismus.

Noch immer kursieren Vorurteile und das Wissen über ihre Geschichte ist oft lückenhaft. Heute gelten Sinti und Roma zwar als eine anerkannte Minderheit in Deutschland, doch noch immer gibt es Verbrechen aus Antiziganismus. Was viele vergessen: Sinti und Roma prägen die Kultur in Deutschland und in ganz Europa entscheidend mit.
In diesem Video erklären wir euch, woher Sinti und Roma ursprünglich kommen, wie sie über Jahrhunderte ausgegrenzt werden und wieso ihre Geschichte eben doch weit mehr ist als die Erinnerung an Unterdrückung und Diskriminierung.

“This lellum’s mangin is naggins tae (this land’s story is mine too)”.

We know that Travellers have been in Scotland since at least the 12th century. Since the medieval times, Scotland’s travelling communities have played a myriad of roles, including ballad singers, craftspeople and pearl fishers.

Travellers have been immortalised in art and literature and have contributed a lot to Scotland’s heritage.

But despite the important roles they’ve played throughout Scotland’s story, Travellers have often been pushed to the margins and have faced persecution. We rarely talk about their contributions and experiences to Scotland’s heritage.

Today many continue to travel Scotland’s roads, passing their culture and traditions to a new generation.

Watch as Nawken (Scottish Traveller) Davie Donaldson tells some of Scotland’s Traveller stories.

February 2005
After centuries of exclusion and persecution, a new initiative has been launched to help Roma communities break the cycle of desperate poverty.

(2 Jun 2017) Prague was alive with the sound of traditional Roma music on Friday as the annual Roma parade wound its way through the centre of the city.
The event was part of the Khamoro World Roma Festival in Prague.
The festival, now in its 19th year, celebrates the culture of the Roma people, an embattled minority who live in Europe.
Among other events during the weekend is an international conference on Roma culture, a football tournament and a gala concert.

They are known by many names: Gypsies, Travelers, and Roma, which is how they prefer to be known. Whatever you call them, Roma are among the most widely dispersed and yet the least understood ethnic groups on earth. VOA's Adam Phillips and Daniela Schrier filed this report on Romany culture and its influences in New York, where thousands of the world's estimated 12 million Roma make their home.

Hungary's last Roma fortune-teller fears his culture and traditions could disappear before his eyes. Most traditional Roma occupations are very much on the wane. Many in Hungary face racism, segregation, social exclusion and poverty. Here's a report.

A new Romani musical journey by one of the UK's most accomplished musical figures, Scottish guitarist and composer Simon Thacker, featuring Polish cellist Justyna Jablonska and traditional Roma singer/violinist Masha Natanson.

Contrasting his vivid re-imagining of songs from the gypsy tradition with wonderfully inventive new instrumental music, Thacker draws on and extends European, Indian and Balkan folk forms, and of course flamenco, as well as reimagines traditional songs in Romani, Romanian, Serbian and Russian languages. Songs of the Roma premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2016 as part of the prestigious Made in Scotland showcase and a track features on Simon and Justyna's acclaimed 2017 Karmana album. http://[a]www.simonthacker.com%2Fshop.html[/a]

The European Roma Institute for Arts and Culture (ERIAC) is releasing the masterclass "Anti-Gypsyism, Resistance, and Cultural Memory: A Critical Perspective from Spain" with Fernando Ruiz Molina, produced in the framework of the project Reclaiming Our Past, Rebuilding Our Future: New Approaches to Fighting Antigypsyism (JEKHIPE).

For centuries, the Romani people in Spain have navigated a landscape of institutionalized exclusion. This masterclass uncovers the hidden threads of this history: the laws that criminalized an identity, the repression of the Franco era, and the quiet persistence of inequality today.

However, the story of the Roma is not just one of victimhood, it is one of fierce political and cultural resistance. Fernando Ruiz Molina explores the transformative power of the post-1978 associative movement and the revolutionary leadership of Roma women.

*The masterclass is available with English and Romani subtitles. Please note that, due to a limitation in YouTube’s subtitle interface, the Romani subtitles are currently listed as Romanian.*

JEKHIPE is a European Commission-funded initiative (CERV) led by ERGO Network, ERIAC, and CEPS, in collaboration with national partners: Slovo 21 (Czechia), Central Council for German Sinti and Roma (Germany), UCRI and Romni (Italy), Amare Romentza (Romania), FAGiC and Romane Siklovne (Spain), and Trajosko Drom (Sweden).

Together, these organizations address historical injustices, such as the lack of recognition for the Roma Holocaust and slavery, while promoting institutional representation in arts and education. By engaging policy-makers and grassroots communities, JEKHIPE seeks to contribute to the establishing of clear mechanisms for governmental accountability across Europe.

”Art is a tool to convey what really matters.” Romani artist Małgorzata Mirga-Tas uses art to reclaim and celebrate Roma history, identity, and memory. To her, art is a language and a means to change perceptions within her community.

“I focus on subjects connected to Roma culture, with identity, appropriation, and reclaiming memory, as well as notions of multiculturality and anti-Romani sentiment.” Małgorzata Mirga-Tas lives with her family in Czarna Góra, Poland. Her textile works function as a response to centuries of misrepresentation of Romani people. Mirga-Tas reinterprets history through bold, patterned fabrics and colourful compositions: “I don’t want to recount these traumatic situations using black, white, or gloomy colours. On the contrary: picking strong, patterned fabrics really matters to me, because every situation of this kind should be told in colour.”

From her studio near her home, she collaborates with a small team of women, friends and family, to bring her pieces to life: “Every time I enter my studio, I feel my life is really in place,” she says and continues: “Working with the community means working on our collective memory. Collaborative efforts challenge the stereotype of the Romani community.”

Through her art, Mirga-Tas often deal with traumatic stories of violence against Romani people, including the Holocaust. In the portrait series ‘Siukar Manusia’ Romani, Holocaust survivors are portrayed with bright colours on a dark, blue, velvet background: “There are stories that are traumatic and full of violence, and you wonder how to show them in the first place. I figured the easiest way was to show only what truly mattered,” she elaborates: “The story was about them.”

Her practice extends beyond making art; it’s also about community. Using art, Mirga-Tas bridges history and memory, giving voice to those long overlooked: “This is my mission statement: To show that we’re normal people,” Mirga-Tas says: “My art can act and change the discrimination, as can the art of other Romani artists, as I’m not the only one. Creating art and doing what I do is a part of who I am.”

Małgorzata Mirga-Tas (b. 1978, Zakopane, Poland) is a Polish-Romani artist who lives and works in Czarna Góra in southern Poland. Mirga-Tas is known for her textile collages, created with materials and fabrics gathered mainly from family and friends. A feminist perspective informs her visual storytelling and challenges stereotypical representations of Roma people. Often working in collaboration with other women, she sews pieces of clothing, handkerchiefs, tablecloths, curtains and sheets together to create vivid portraits and scenes from everyday life. Her works have been exhibited at the 42nd Biennial of Painting Bielska Jesień in 2015 (she received an honourable mention then), the 43rd Biennial of Painting Bielska Jesień in 2017, the 3rd Art Encounters Biennale in Timisoara in 2019, and the 11th Berlin Biennale in 2020. Mirga-Tas was the official Polish representative at the 59th Venice Biennale in 2022 – the first Roma artist to represent any country.

Małgorzata Mirga-Tas was interviewed by Roxanne Bagheshirin Lærkesen in her studio near Czarna Góra in February 2026, in connection with her exhibition Pani, so tradeł / Water that Wanders at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Copenhagen, Denmark.
