AY YOLA and UZORITSA will represent Bashkiria at the Tavrida.ART festival

From August 1 to 3, the young art festival Tavrida.ART will be held for the seventh time in Crimea, bringing together thousands of participants and spectators from across Russia.

A special guest of the festival will be AY YOLA — a musical project that blends tradition with contemporary music styles and made waves in global charts with the hit song "Homay".

The Republic of Bashkortostan will also be represented by the folk group UZORITSA — a team that breathes modern energy into folk traditions. Their work combines traditional polyphonic vocals with electronic beats, rap, and the sound of live instruments. The group boldly reimagines folklore to create original music that resonates with today’s audience.

According to the Ministry of Culture’s press service, performers of various styles and genres will take the stage across five different performance areas. Set on 250 hectares of scenic landscape, the festival will host over 300 events, including shows, music, film, theater, dance, literature, and visual arts, presenting the full spectrum of Russian culture in one place and becoming one of the country’s largest cultural and educational events.

Leading theater groups and studios will present their productions. Regions will showcase their cultural and culinary achievements, while artists and designers will impress with visual art. As is tradition, thousands of participants will unite in a themed art parade and march through the entire festival grounds. Tavrida.ART will once again become the biggest gathering place for young creatives from all regions — a space where they can not only find inspiration but also receive support for their projects and make themselves heard.
