The festival intends to offer quality free time program for children, youth, older generations and especially those with less oppurtunities during summer time. Our society is overflown with stereotipes, prejudices and other life views that lead to exclusion. Our intention is to overcome stigmas (different social groups, people with special needs, ...) and develop compassion and understanding of those differencies in early age through sport activities, workshops and social events. Through phisical and social interaction, the participants of the festival will meet those with phisical, sensory or emotional disabilities, mental or health disorders and people who intentionally or unintentionally choose a different lifestyle. At the same time, our intetntion is also to promote value of volunteering.
