From June 23 to 30, the First International Forum of Eastern and Central Europe Via Carpatia will be held in the village of Kryvorivnia in the Carpathians. A rich cultural, intellectual and entertainment program awaits participants and guests. If you have not yet planned your vacation or already have tickets to the Carpathians, we will give you 7 reasons why you should visit the Forum Via Carpatia – a bright event that will light up your summer.<\/p>\n

1. Free festival week in the Carpathian Mountains<\/h2>\n

All festival events during the whole week, from June 23 to 30, will be absolutely free. The only thing to worry about in advance is the place of residence and the way to get there (by train, car). By the way, the organizers of the Forum have thought about this: on the website viacarpatia.org<\/a> you know the list of estates, houses, hotels and hostels, designed for different budgets for different numbers of guests. All of them are located near the Forum locations.<\/p>\n

2. Hutsul holiday Poloninsk summer<\/h2>\n

This is a real paradise for gourmets, lovers of everything unusual and new. Here, and products of folk art, and food products, and colorful national clothes, and a fair of folk craftsmen of the Hutsul region. Both entrepreneurs and local residents will present their products. Cheese, mead, mushrooms, Carpathian teas, folk clothes – everyone will find something for themselves. This year, the Polonyna summer will host the festival of Ukrainian producers “Made in Ukraine”. We guarantee that you will not leave empty-handed.<\/p>\n

3. Gala concerts of Ukrainian stars<\/h2>\n

The Sounds of Carpatia music and arts festival in the style of World Music will be held from June 28 to 30 in the open air among the Carpathian Mountains. Headliners: Marichka Burmaka, Oleg Skrypka, Alina Pash, Khrystyna Solovii, KOZAK SYSTEM, Ivanka Chervynska and Igor Zakus, “Jazz Kolo”, Taraka and others. More than two hundred musicians will perform on two stages.<\/p>\n

4. A unique outdoor dance floor<\/h2>\n

A dance program awaits the guests of the Forum every evening. Two-hour musical sets by Ukrainian DJs in the fresh mountain air will not leave anyone indifferent. Modern electronic music “New Voice of the Carpathians” will be presented by DJ O’Skrypka. The “MUND” project will offer guests modern electronics combined with authentic folk instruments (drum, pipes, violin). By the way, this will be the highest dance floor above sea level.<\/p>\n

5. The best festival film premieres<\/h2>\n

The highlight of the TRANSCARPATIA festival will be the main film premieres. Screenings of the tapes “Legend of the Carpathians”, “EKS”, “Traitor”, “Izy”, “When Trees Fall”, as well as screenings of retrospective tapes and short films and documentaries. In addition to Ukrainian films, foreign films will be presented, including the winners of the Cannes and Berlin festivals. Screenings will be held in two locations – two screens in conference halls and one large open air screen. During three days from June 23 to 25, 20 films will be shown.<\/p>\n

6. Excursions to museums and the nature reserve<\/h2>\n

The whole day of June 25 will be set aside for this. There will be excursions to the museums of Kryvorivna, Verkhovyna, and Krasnoill. Sightseeing tours with a visit to the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve and numerous themed tours will be organized.<\/p>\n

Did you know that only in one Verkhovyna district there are about 18 protected objects and almost three dozen museums? We offer a few, and you choose: Museum of Hutsul life, ethnography and musical instruments by Roman Kumlyk, Mykhailo Hrushevskyi Museum, Regional History and Local History Museum of Hutsul region, Literary and Memorial Museum of Ivan Franko, Hut-Museum of the film “Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors”, Hutsul Housewife Museum, Hutsul Embroidery Museum, Manor Museum “Vysyvanka”, Museum of Applied Arts, Tasting Hall of Carpathian Winemakers, Museum of Hutsul Life and Art “U Trembitarya”, Hata-staya Cheese Factory, Museum of Hutsul Magic, Museum of the Village “Kryvorivnia”, People’s Museum of Hutsul Theater of H. M. Hotkevich. That is why the trip should be not only entertaining, but also intellectually rich.<\/p>\n

7. Rest in the summer capital of Ukraine<\/h2>\n

Kryvorivnia is a unique village in the Verkhovyna district, where summer vacations were once held. Famous representatives of the Ukrainian intelligentsia Ivan Franko and Mykhailo Hrushevsky liked to rest here, Lesya Ukrainka came, the artist Ivan Trush often visited, and Hnat Hotkevich created a theater. Serhiy Paradzhanov filmed “Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors” in this area.<\/p>\n
