What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Summer Fest has evolved noticeably since its 2024 seventh edition, expanding from a primarily national event into one that now draws visitors from beyond Moldova's borders, a shift the organizers have built into subsequent programming

02

The mystery stays covered

The Botanical Garden setting gives the festival a green, spacious backdrop unusual for a multi-format event of this scale, accommodating everything from concerts to yoga sessions without feeling cramped

03

The city starts moving

Its programming breadth is distinctive: late-night film screenings sit alongside daytime kids' workshops, a handmade fair and a food court, meaning the festival functions as a full-day, multi-generational destination rather than a narrowly themed event

04

The water draws everyone in

The 2026 edition, running August 22-23, represents a continuation of this trajectory toward an increasingly international festival identity
