WHAT TO EXPECT

A weekend festival celebrating Ukrainian culture, food, and music on a five-acre property with a stage by the pond, a beer garden, and more than 30 vendors. Friday is food-only; the full festival runs Saturday and Sunday.

Enjoy live music and dance from more than 10 bands and ensembles, including headliners Kalush Orchestra (2022 Eurovision winners), plus an authentic Ukrainian kitchen serving varenyky, borshch, holubtsi, and more. A free kids zone, heritage exhibits, and a bazaar of embroidery, ceramics, and crafts round out the weekend.
