The Taras Shevchenko Festival She.Fest was born in the wake of the Revolution of Dignity and as a response to the start of the Russian-Ukrainian war in 2014. Its organizers set out to "remove the fur hat and mustache from Taras Shevchenko", to present him as a genius, innovator, rebel, and an exceptionally educated and progressive person for his time. And they succeeded — for 10 years in a row, in the village of Morintsy in the Cherkasy region, thousands of like-minded people come to She.Fest from all corners of Ukraine and even from abroad to immerse themselves in the unique atmosphere of modern Ukrainian culture, cleansed of folk clichés and Soviet stereotypes.
In this article, we will tell you about the festival and its highlights, and on page seo service we also invite you to visit it. After all, She.Fest will take place this weekend, August 17-18, 2024. To learn more, you can visit the She.FEST website, where you will also find information about logistics, accommodation, and other important needs for visitors.
Last year, the organizers of She.Fest turned to Cityhost with a request to provide free hosting for the site — we have a program according to which government institutions, volunteer, and charitable organizations can receive a free domain and hosting for their web resources. Of course, we did not refuse the volunteer festival, and for more than a year now, the She.Fest website has been hosted by us, which we are very proud of.
This cooperation became mutual — She.Fest supported our initiative to de-Russify domains and placed a banner near the Enlightenment Glade calling for the registration of correct Ukrainian-language domains. You can read more about this in this post.
Julia Kapshuchenko-Shumeiko, the founder and longtime leader of the festival, helped us write this article.

The festival takes place in a location with great energy, a place of power where Taras Shevchenko was born. It occupies the entire center of the village of Morintsy and consists of 10 locations (the number may vary slightly from year to year).
An important and traditional spot is the Enlightenment Glade, where lecturers, writers, acoustic bands, and public figures perform. The Glade operates from 12:00 to 17:00, and there are always many spectators present.
Each year, guests of the Enlightenment Glade include storyteller Sashko Lirnyk, writer and public figure Larisa Nitsoy, writer Vasyl Shklyar, People's Artist of Ukraine Ruslana Lotsman, and many other figures who have much to share with the audience. A significant part of the program is dedicated to performances by Shevchenko scholars, who discuss little-known aspects of the Kobzar's life — Shevchenko as an archaeologist, artist, serviceman, his everyday life and beloved women, and his influence on contemporary art, which is still felt today. The most emotional event on the Enlightenment Glade every year is the She.Battle — a competition of poets, where the winners are chosen by the audience based on who receives the loudest applause, stomping, and cheering. The loudest response determines who advances to the next round.
