Access Winnipeg has been out and about covering the two week festival of Folklorama. It is the largest cultural gathering in North America and a top tourist attraction. On Sunday our reporters took in the Hungarian pavilion at the St. James Civic Center and saw the bottle dance and enjoyed a meal in a packed performance hall. On Monday, at the Bronx Community Center, the Brazilian pavilion showed off their amazing samba music and dancing to close the evening off with a party.
