Famous people sharing about the Festival… …It is nice to realize that the level of the Veselo Festival is on the constant rise. Yet it preserves the atmosphere of a large scout camp. For those who have been festival’s guests more than once, it doesn’t really matter which venue it will take place at next time. As long as it is fun. But these people are actually the ones who create heaps of fun around themselves… Vladimir Zelenskiy, showman …It is an excellent alternative to any family vacation. It is a chance to reinforce relations within the family, between children and parents. Here, you don’t lie around with a glass of wine bored to the bone; you participate actively in the vibrant festival life, in the company of renowned people… ВVasiliy Virastiuk, athlete, two-time holder of the World’s Strongest Man title We really love Greece, we like everything about it! We even stayed for one additional day. Today we’re going to taste some fish with Volodia Zelenskiy and Valera Meladze, for some reason, it is particularly good here in Greece! Overall, Veselo Festival is awesome! People are friendly and fun!))) We had a great concert, a positive and kind one! We enjoyed every bit of it! Thank you for the invitation! We hope to continue as the good friends of Kvartal! Vladimir Presnyakov, a singer, composer, actor, and Natalia Podolskaya, a singer The organizers came up with an excellent idea of combining active leisure with an entertainment program, what could be better! My family and I visited the festival twice; I enjoyed both working and resting there. We organized football tournaments for children and adults, at which the finalists played in a super match against the “all-star” team. We experienced tons of positive emotions and unforgettable impressions! I wish Veselo Festival movement to welcome each year more and more people willing to have a good time! Aleksey Mikhailichenko, football player, Olympic champion and Cup Winners’ Cup Holder ...I’d like to thank the organizers for inviting me to perform on the stage of an ancient amphitheater on one of the most picturesque Greek islands – Rhodes. Splendid atmosphere and grateful audience! I really enjoyed socializing with the Ukrainians! My best wishes to the Festival! Thomas Anders, singer, Modern Talking front man ... Veselo Festival is a genuine feast of music, sports and great mood. The organizers managed to create an incredibly unforgettable atmosphere. The event gave you the opportunity to hang out with friends, have a good time and to simply rest from everyday worries! Ani Lorak, singer ...I am often asked, “What’s your perfect vacation?” And it seems to me that it’s easy to find an answer to that question by going to Veselo Festival at least once! Dances in the morning, sports and games in the afternoon, concerts in the evening, and other kinds of dances at night, and all that is in the company of wonderful people and non-stop humor. I talked about the festival excitedly and at great length to my friends; next time I am bringing them along, to prove that I wasn’t giving them a say-so! I am excited and recommend everyone going to the festival! :-))) Vladislav Yama, dancer and choreographer …Veselo is an amazing festival, a vivid, incredibly red hot and positive one. Many thanks to all organizers for creating a great atmosphere of a holiday, unforgettable vacation and entertainment! Potap and Nastia Duo will be happy to go to the festival again, to make the event still more fun! Potap, producer and Potap and Nastia Duo performer, director, showman ...I was invited to the festival in Emirates to give a solo concert, but alongside that, I really enjoyed participating in multiple events and contests of this big-time feast. For example, there was a surprise in store for the Karaoke contest winner – together we performed a song at my concert. I wish to Veselo Festival new successes and prosperity!... Tina Karol, singer ...It’s a great festival! From morning to evening, the day is packed with all sorts of events. People have what to choose from – whether it is sports, dancing, star concerts or the disco! In a word, VESELO is FUN!... Elka, singer Our flight landed in Athens at 11 a.m. and instead of 3.5 hours, our trip to hotel took around eight hours, as we stopped by in different villages, enjoyed the most delicious food in national taverns, and drank Greek wine! And it felt so peaceful and heartfelt… My impressions of the festival are the best! But most memorable to me was breakfast time when artists and festival guests mingled together. Everyone is equal! People greet each other, say hello, smile, like one large amicable company. On the whole, the atmosphere is very good and positive))). I heard that great DJs work with you, so I am going to the night disco party. I hope the impressions will be still brighter! I wish good luck and many future successes to Veselo Festiva! Valeriy Meladze, singer Around me are great people! They realize that I am just like anyone else. I eat, I sleep and I walk, like everybody! We live next door to the Ukrainians, we socialize, discuss things. Everything is good, most importantly, people are kind and open! In our turbulent time, if you ask me, “Do I like here at Veselo Festival?” My answer will be, “I sure do! I like it a lot!” The spectators are superb, the equipment is finely tuned, everything is organized on the highest level! Great job! Keep it up! Elena Vayenga, singer, songwriter, composer It was all in high gear, loads of positive emotions. I really liked it! All Ukrainian regions are represented in the festival, moreover, it welcomed foreigners who had first 3-4 songs translated to them, and then they danced with the rest of the crowd, because music is an international thing. Veselo Festival offers special energy and drive. Good luck to everyone! The TIK Band ...We had so much fun! It is especially delightful to see so many fellow countrymen around, who speak your language and understand you at once. But most importantly, everyone will find something to do at the festival – kids and adults, parents and children rest and have fun together, feeling very comfortable at the same time!.. The Boombox Band ...It was a superb, inspiring and vivid vacation that brought unforgettable emotions, energy and strengths for new creative endeavors, new songs and videos. In our life, it is crucial to move, to walk in sync with nature and the heart. CITA created that exact kind of atmosphere for people.

It is unlikely that all NATO countries would accept Ukraine as is. NATO members want their own security first and are willing to help others on the principle of solidarity.
