You’ll get the unique opportunity to dive into stylistics and the atmosphere of an authentic Lviv phenomenon, the Batyars’ World. It is a world with its own street language and city folklore of the beginning of the 20th century. Lviv Batyar is a freedom – loving, witty, gallant and romantic idler.
Taking part in the Batyar’s Day program visitors and citizens easily catch the special feeling of the immortal Lviv spirit and the old city humor. Concerts of Batyars’ bands, different comedy competitions, and quizzes for children, a retro movie festival, Batyars’ song and dance master-classes for everybody, as well as tasty refreshments and drinks are everywhere to enjoy for all the participants of the city holiday.
Being Batyar is universal. It does not depend upon ethnic, religious or political belongings. It is just a special kind of self-identification with the native beloved city. Batyars of the whole world, unite! Join Lviv’s jolly crowd!

Jokes, songs, traditional rascal-style entertainment – all this and more for everyone who hopes to meet up with an original “Galician phenomenon” – a Batyar with his audacious words, and his whole-hearted laugh, a young man that you will never mistake for anyone else, and whom you will never be able to forget.
