After a three-year break, one of the most famous music festivals in Ukraine and Europe, Atlas Weekend, is returning to Kyiv, now called Atlas United. This was announced by Atlas Weekend on Instagram. 

New format and rich program of Atlas Weekend

The organizers of the festival have prepared 6 stages where popular Ukrainian artists and world stars will perform. Among them: Boombox, Zhadan and the Dogs, Artem Pivovarov, BEZ OBMEZHEN, DANTES, KURGAN and AGREGAT, Druha Rika, LATEXFAUNA and Verka Serduchka, who will present an exclusive Ukrainian-language program. This is the first major performance of the artists in Ukraine since the start of the full-scale invasion.

In addition to the music part, the program includes "Underground Stand-Up" with the participation of such stars as Vasyl Baidak, Nastya Zukhvala, Svyat Zagaykevich, Sergey Chirkov and others.

At the same time, an important goal of the festival is to raise at least 100 million hryvnias, which will be used to purchase ground and aerial drones. 15% of each ticket sold will be donated to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

How to get to the festival?

The event will take place on July 12-14 at the Blockbuster Mall. Tickets to the festival can be purchased through the Monobank app.

The organizers noted that tickets for the festivals that were supposed to take place earlier but were postponed due to the invasion are valid this year. Also, 6 thousand people with disabilities will be able to attend Atlas United for free. A special sector with a podium will be built for them.

Important! Tickets for festival bracelets will be exchanged only at the entrance to the festival. Ticket holders for July 13 can receive their wristbands on July 12, and those with tickets for July 14 - from July 13. Damaged and damaged wristbands are not subject to exchange, and the limit of entrances and exits is up to three times a day.

Remember! When planning a trip to Ukraine, first of all, you need to take care of the appropriate insurance policy, because any foreign insurance automatically terminates after crossing the Ukrainian border. In this case, we recommend that you take out insurance specifically covering military risks, which will cover not only standard medical care/treatment/diagnosis, etc. but also accidents and injuries caused by passive or direct military risks.

You can take out such insurance on the Visit Ukraine website. Follow the link and choose an insurance policy with the appropriate coverage and indemnity amount for the required period.

Atlas United is not only the return of your favorite festival, but also an opportunity to help the army and support important causes through music. The organizers urge all festivalgoers to join the event and create an unforgettable atmosphere together.

We remind you! A new pedestrian bridge from Obolonska embankment to Obolon Island has been opened in Kyiv. Check out what the new recreational location looks like, how to get there, and what you can see here.
