Obciniada Festival

The music and mountain sports festival in Gura Humorului - Obciniada, is the place where you meet the restless people, the living nature and the music that makes your heart race.

For three days in the heart of Bucovina, the energy of mountain sports intertwines with the vibration of live concerts. Mountain running, mountain biking, climbing and evenings full of authentic music give rise to an experience that takes you from the heights of the Obcinis to the middle of the community.

Community Ambassador 2025

“I was very happy to take part in the first edition of Obciniada. It was a very good reason to come to Bucovina for the first time in my life, and the fact that it came bundled with concerts and trail running made me want to come back to the next editions. I hope that the event will grow from year to year and we will be more and more at the start line and, why not, we will have new distances added to the racing “offer”. This year, on the occasion of Obciniada, we saw the Wolves of Calancea live for the first time, and this was exactly the energy boost I needed after the 12 km run on Toaca.”

“OBCINIADA was one of the highlights of my year. The organisers nailed it- everything felt really well thought out. The setting is absolutely beautiful, and the whole place just has this really friendly, welcoming feel. I discovered loads of great new music, danced, laughed, and met so many amazing people. Between the sports, the music, and the atmosphere, the energy and the adrenaline were nonstop! Pure fun from start to finish. Can't wait for round two!”

Voluntary Community 2025

“In an area where you don't have many opportunities to volunteer, Obciniada was an experience that showed me how nice it is to get involved in a project. The volunteer experience at the event meant not just work, but the joy of working as a team and meeting new people with whom to share the same passions. I was able to learn that everyone's involvement matters and how important it is to manage your time and emotions, even in tense situations. The atmosphere is unique, completely different from everything else. Just imagine what it's like to listen to your favorite songs played live. Obciniada represents the joy of being together, playing sports in nature and creating beautiful memories. I urge you to try this experience at least once, for I for one, can't wait for the next edition!”

Winner Half Marathon Obciniada 2025

“I'm glad I had the opportunity to be part of this event. The organization was done by a young team, connected to the news and attentive to detail, and the routes were prepared very well, which made the run even more enjoyable. I am glad that such events are also coming to life in the north of the country and I will definitely return to the 2026 edition as well”
