Unforgettable City Day Celebration in Odesa
The City Day celebration in Odesa concluded with an impressive concert on Deribasivska Street. Thousands of locals and tourists gathered under the open sky.
“This year's celebration has been truly exceptional: from Venice to Vancouver, from Berlin to Baltimore. In France, Austria, Germany, the USA, Canada, and the UK, dozens of cities, thousands of people celebrated alongside Odesa. We received heartfelt greetings from European commissioners, Bundestag deputies, British lords, and mayors of European capitals. Odesa is not just a point on the map; it’s a rhythm, a style, humor, and freedom, and it’s us together. Today, we celebrate with Kalush, a symbol of modern Ukrainian music, a voice echoing worldwide. Happy City Day, Odesa!” said Mayor Hennadii Trukhanov.
During the concert, leading dance ensembles, art school students, and talented vocalists performed both elegant classical pieces and energetic contemporary shows.
Special guests of the evening included the band JAZZ INSIDE with their atmospheric jazz vibe, and MUAYAD, a finalist of the national selection for “Eurovision-2025.”
The highlight of the evening was the performance by the legendary Kalush Orchestra, which delivered unforgettable emotions.
