The festival started in 2003 and is held annually in October.[1][2] With an initial 30,000 to 40,000 people during its first year, the festival's audience has grown to over 1 million visiters annually. In September 2020, the event organizer had to cancel the festival for the year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
