The third Sun Spirit music festival concluded in a picturesque mountain gorge in Crimea. Among ancient caves, under a star-studded sky, over 5,000 people gathered, united by the spirit of freedom and a love of music.
The main feature of the event is its multi-format nature: more than 120 musicians representing various countries and cities, from Macedonia to Guatemala, performed on the festival’s four stages.
"Over the three years of its existence, the festival has become a recognizable and anticipated event, uniting thousands of participants with an ideology of creativity, self-development, and a healthy lifestyle," said Evgeny Sotnikov, one of the project's ideologists.
Live Stage headliner Kolya Manyu rocked the valley with fiery reggae. The artists delighted guests with trip-hop and world music, featuring instruments from around the globe: from sitars and drums to jaw harps, harps, and flutes. The electronic and alternative stages were filled with the sounds of downtempo, IDM, chill-out, techno, drum 'n' bass, broken beats, tropical electronics, and experimental music. The artists' performances were accompanied by a Tesla show, and the headliner was Australian Timmehtek, a guru of poking and fire. Collaborations between the Dreamlaser and NeuroSyndicate teams transformed rock formations into a unique mapping surface covering over 100 square meters.
For those who prefer a quiet campfire, small teepees were built where guests could relax to the sounds of ambient music. For those who prefer active recreation, a climbing wall was set up, where guests could parasail, ride a zipline between two mountains, enjoying the incredible views of the gorge, or mountain bike through the peninsula's most beautiful landscapes.
During the day, guests at the "Knowledge," "Health," "Sound," and "City of Masters" venues sculpted clay, painted, learned to sing, play musical instruments, listened to lectures on physics, astronomy, and the sciences, attended dance classes, and practiced qigong and yoga.
On the way to the silent cinema, where the Insomnia festival team was showing cartoons, there was a cozy market with designer clothing and original accessories.
The food court offered festival guests chia puddings, smoothies, fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, pizza, falafel, freshly squeezed juices, ice cream, sweets, hot tea, and strong coffee. The youngest guests had a special program with entertainers, cave tours, yoga, puppet theater, and workshops.
