This 20-year old festival was born on the sunny Crimean beaches in the same year the Soviet Union fell apart. Like Ukraine in general, it has a turbulent history.
This 20-year old festival was born on the sunny Crimean beaches in the same year the Soviet Union fell apart. Like Ukraine in general, it has a turbulent history.
Now this festival is better known globally than its home country, at least among music lovers.
Sea, beach and sun are permanent residents in Kazantip – the raving world-of-its-own, located not far from Yevpatoria.
Top-class DJs frequent the stages, while 30 bars and restaurants and two open-air cinemas welcome those who want a break from music.
You can dance in the pools, sleep on the beach or start your day with an ice cold Martini – do whatever you want or do nothing at all for the whole of August because that’s what Kazantip is all about.
July 30-Aug 27, village Popovka, buses from Yevpatoria and from Simferopol in Crimea, www.kazantip-republic.com/ Tickets: EUR 60-160.
