This summer, the heart of Catalunya will beat to the rhythm of Ukraine! Join in on an intense three-day open-air festival in the very center of Barcelona—at the legendary Poble Espanyol architectural park for three days of the best Ukrainian music under the Spanish sky.

Day 1: Energy of Freedom

The festival opens with a lighthearted drive and heartfelt lyrics. The first day is dedicated to indie bands and the new wave of pop conquering the European charts. The perfect time to get to know the place, socialize, and feel the atmosphere of the Ukrainian community.

Day 2: Voice of the Nation

Saturday is a day of powerful experiments. Deep ethnic motifs combined with electronic sounds and alternative rock. It's a day of energy, of folklore reinterpreted in a modern way, and of dancing until the last ray of sunlight in the Plaça Major.

Day 3: Electronic Heart

The festival's final chord is contemporary Ukrainian electronica and urban culture. The best artists and producers will create the atmosphere of a grand nighttime celebration where Ukrainian beats merge with the architectural beauty of Poble Espanol.

Supporting Ukrainian Children

Prostir Fest and the Charitable Foundation Tvoya Opora are joining forces to support Ukrainian children.

The mission of Prostir Fest is to unite Ukrainians around shared values, language and talents by creating a space where young people who have been forcibly separated from their homes by the war can feel a sense of belonging to the Ukrainian nation and proudly carry Ukrainian culture into the world.

This mission gains even deeper meaning through a partnership with the Charitable Foundation Tvoya Opora. The foundation’s 12 years of experience and its international recognition by the WHO and the UN allows Prostir Fest not only to promote culture, but also to provide real support to those who need it most. As part of that, the festival supports the Tvoya Opora Family Center for Mental Well Being—a place where children and families affected by the war receive support for recovery. The Center has become a safe space for those who have experienced occupation, loss, or forced relocation. Its specialists have already provided more than 13,000 free services to children of military personnel, internally displaced persons, and families facing difficult life circumstances. These are thousands of real stories of returning to life. Every child who receives professional support from psychologists and educators here is part of our shared future—a future we are rebuilding together today.
