This year’s festival has a jam-packed programme with tremendous artists across three stages: the Eddie Rosner stage, Rynok Square and Pototsky Palace yard. Acts will include Peter Cincotti, Adrien Brandeis Quintet, Claudia Campagnol, Month of Sundays, Pokaz Trio and LosSamos. Street music artists will also get the chance to shine, with open-air auditions prior to the event, concerts will present the best local talent as chosen by the public.

Two large picnic areas allow guests to watch performances on LED screens and enjoy interactive areas, carnival rides, food courts, souvenir stalls and further entertainment. Movie screenings will also present collections from Leonid Goldshtein, an icon of the Ukrainian Jazz movement. And, if that were not enough, the cool double-decker #Borjomibus gives its top deck to performers as it takes a tour of Lviv.
