Koktebel Jazz Festival is Ukraine’s largest open air jazz festival. Prior to the Russian occupation of the Crimea every year it was held in the small village Koktebel on the Black Sea coast, at the foot of Karadag Mountain. The year before, the organizers moved it to Zatoka (Odessa region). And in 2016 the festival will be first held in Chernomorsk near Odessa.
History
The festival Jazz Koktebel was held in the Crimea in 2003 on the initiative of the ideologist and founder Dmitry Kiselev (Russia) and the permanent head of the organizing committee Lilies Mlinarich (Ukraine) “in contrast to the dominance of bad musical taste rushing at us from television screens and newspaper pages”. Last year, the organizers of the “Jazz Koktebel” presented its new project – a festival of contemporary art – ARTISHOCK. It has affected all types and genres of contemporary art from the land art and light art to literature and independent cinema.
What to expect this year?
The organizers are confident that the festival will be the marker for the growth of freedom, rebirth and happiness of Ukrainian cities. This year the festival will take place in the city with an updated story and name, which was formerly known as Ilyichevsk, and now has the name of Chernomorsk.
In 2016 the festival Jazz Koktebel will be held from 25 to 28 August. It will be 4 days of freedom, inspiration, creativity, new ideas and perfect sense. Among the participants in 2016, the festival will host: Submotion Orchestra, Kadebostany, Max the Sax, The Bad Plus, Blue Foundation, Garden City Movement, Sergei Babkin, The Erised, Boom Pam, Tonbruket, Beissoul & Einius, Panivalkova and others.

History: from past until modern times
The idea of organizing and holding the powerful extreme music festival Carpathian Alliance Metal Festival on the slopes of the Carpathians was born quite a long time ago, but only in 2011 organizers had been able to hold a number of activities and negotiations for its implementation.
The project covers such music areas as FOLK/PAGAN/VIKING/BLACK METAL and others. And in 2011 it was held not in the valley or forest, but directly on one of the most amazing peaks of the Ukrainian Carpathians – a mountain called ‘Vysoky Verkh’, at an altitude of more than 1000 meters above sea level, among the gray virgin forests, mist and heavy clouds.
In 2015 the festival moved to the city of Lviv, and was held at the recreation center “Lviv Switzerland”.
Starting from 2016 festival will be held in the capital city of Ukraine – Kiev in the ‘Druzhby narodiv’ park. Much more musical styles will be added this year, thus it will expand the audience and scale of the festival. Knights’ tournament will be held during the Carpathian Alliance Metal Festival, so it’s a good possibility to see a medieval battle. Additionally, visitors can relax on the beach, which will be located on the territory of the festival, or swim in the river. Official dates are 29-31 July.
Here is a promo video of the upcoming event, watch it and make a right decision!

The main idea of the project is to create a unique atmosphere for food lovers and gastronomic eaters. Street food festival in Ukraine was first conceived in 2013 on the territory of Platform art-factory in Kiev. It is an unusual place (working factory in the past) that was reconstructed for festival, exhibition, gallery, art-space and other needs. And until these days festival venue remains the same experiencing some external modifications form its organizers. Last time The Festival was about American food and culture. Chek about last Street Food Festival of June 2016 here.
