On the TOWERS three main locations will be presented: the Center for Architecture, Design and Urbanism "Powder Tower", Svirz Castle, Leoland Sports and Entertainment Center.
As part of the festival, lectures and workshops, presentations of new Ukrainian objects, excursions and plein-air tours, discussions, etc. will be held.
The main leitmotif of this year's TOWER is "Time of Ukraine". This is about the window of opportunity that has opened for our country — not only to receive help and support from other countries, but also to show the world its most valuable asset — talented people.
Important guests at the festival will be Ukrainian architects, who most vividly present Ukraine to the world. One of them is the owner and architect of the S.Babushkina architectural bureau, the head of the disciplinary commission of AP NSAU, architect at MANU Kateryna Romanenko.
S. Babushkin's office together with Norman Foster designed the reconstruction of the European Square in Kyiv. Anna Kyriy, the founder of her own architectural and project group, deputy head of the architectural chamber of NSAU, will also visit the festival, who will tell about the first presentation for Ukraine at the Venice Architecture Biennale since 2014.
The festival will also be attended by foreign participants, including Polish artist Aleksandr Janicki, Polish architect Piotr Kuchach and Italian architect Fabio Grilli.
