IPA CIS supports chivalry tournament in Ukraine

Over 500 participants are working to revive the environment of the XV century. The festival welcomed guests from the CIS, Latvia, Poland, Germany, etc. The festival is set in the Kiev Rus Park, a unique location that allows reconstructing a medieval city. Its objectives are:

- To enhance cultural links among Ukraine, CIS and other countries;

- To raise awareness of the public, especially the youth, about ancient cultures through music, verse, theater and traditional craftwork;

- To promote among young people active lifestyles, modern and positive values, such as health, harmony and ambition.

The main feature of the show is a mock chivalry tournament, which includes jousting, group and dismounted combats, and for the first time – the grand charge. This unique show is delivered by re-enactors from the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation.

IPA CIS will award the participants with memorable gifts.
