MUMUSH 5.0

Join the 5th edition of Mumush Festival happening in the valley of Adrianu Mare, Romania between the 13th and 18th of August, 2025.

The word ‘Mumus’ refers to the Hungarian version of the ‘Bogeyman’ (like ‘Babau’ or ‘El Coco’). The Mumus has a different face in every household. It is a kind of demon that is used for inciting fear in children to get them to behave.

We believe that your Mumus is what you accept it to be. It has the face you imagine; it is a creature that you create. It is all those old fears you need to let go of. As master Yoda puts it, “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”The power of Art is the power of Freedom over Fear.

We live in the Anthropocene Era where people in positions of power create all kinds of demons for inciting fear in us to get us to behave. The Bogeyman is all around us, hiding behind all our decisions.This is a time when the future of Humanity will be determined over the next few decades. It is up to all of us. The Earth is our common body we all need to take care of. We need to work together with our Planet to survive. We believe that our Future is what we make it.

MUMUSH is a community in growth. It is a vision of a world we build together with nature. It is a place for self-expression & conversation. A place for freedom and creativity.We aim to provide a space where each of us can find and repaint our inner Mumush and use it to promote awareness, acceptance & sustainability. A place where we can let go of our fears together to change ourselves & our future.We want to celebrate change & creativity through good vibes & good music, workshops, jams, conversation & chill.
