The story

Art and Travel International Film Festival in Tbilisi

Originally the Kharkiv International Festival of Arts and Travel, this event relocated to Tbilisi after the war in Ukraine made its original format untenable, relaunching under co-organizers based in Georgia and Ukraine. Held each September, it judges films and photography specifically promoting tourism across categories from adventure sports to rural and religious tourism.

This festival's roots lie outside Georgia entirely, tracing back to the Kharkiv International Festival of Arts and Travel in Ukraine, an event that became impossible to stage in its original offline format once the war in Ukraine made large public gatherings in Kharkiv untenable.

02

The mystery stays covered

Its origin story, relocating from Kharkiv, Ukraine to Tbilisi after the war disrupted its original offline format, gives the festival a documented history of adaptation that ties its presence in Georgia directly to a specific and traceable set of events rather than an arbitrary founding
