#Gogolfest

From October 1 to 4, Zaporizhzhia is hosting the GOGOLFEST Pokrov international festival, fully adapted to underground shelters and bunkers.

On September 17, the historical drama «Rosa» hits Ukrainian cinemas, where for the first time in domestic cinema all roles were voiced by active-duty military personnel and female veterans with combat experience. Special screenings will take place at GOHOGOLFEST 2026 and at the «Zhovten» cinema in Kyiv.

The contemporary art festival “GogolFest” is returning to Kyiv after a nine-year break, but due to shelling the large-scale events have been moved to spring, while part of the programme will take place on 16–20 September.

In September 2026, GOGOLFEST returns to Kyiv for the first time in nine years: 107 light flowers on the Alley of Heroes of the Heavenly Hundred, performances by the Veterans' Theatre, and a special DakhaBrakha show.
