History of festivals

1991

A month before the first festivities, 110 red viburnum bushes were planted on the site of the former plebaneum to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the poet's birth.[3]

The festival was held on 26 May 1991, with the unveiling of a statue of Stepan Charnetskyi (initiated by Nadiia Protskiv[4]). It was the 110th anniversary of the poet's birth. The event was organized by Halyna Sushelnytska, a fellow countryman and head of the Department of Culture. The poet's daughter, Oleksandra Charnetska-Kuchma, was also present.[5]

During the festival, blue and yellow flags were flown for the first time at the stadium with red flags.[1]

In 2013, the festivities were attended by the creator of the statue of Stepan Charnetskyi, sculptor Ivan Muliarchuk.[6]

In 2015, the first stage of the festival took place on 4 October in the village of Shmankivtsi, and the second on 14 October, in Chortkiv Castle.[7]
