The City Day in Odessa concluded with an incredible concert on the renowned Deribasivska street. Thousands of locals and tourists gathered in the heart of the city to celebrate together.

«This year’s celebration was unprecedented: from Venice to Vancouver, from Berlin to Baltimore, cities all over the world, including France, Austria, Germany, the USA, Canada, and the UK, joined Odessa in the festivities. We received greetings from EU commissioners, Bundestag deputies, British lords, and mayors of European capitals. Odessa is not just a point on the map; it’s a rhythm, a style, humor, and freedom. But most importantly, it’s us, the people of Odessa. And here, on Deribasivska, we celebrate together with Kalush, a symbol of modern Ukrainian music that resonates worldwide. Today, Kalush performs for Odessa. Happy City Day, Odessa!» said Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov.

During the concert, the stage was graced by leading dance ensembles from Odessa, students from art schools, and talented vocalists who showcased both classical and modern performances.

Special guests of the evening included the band JAZZ INSIDE with an atmospheric jazz vibe and MUAYAD, the finalist of the national selection for «Eurovision-2025».

The highlight of the evening was the performance by the legendary Kalush Orchestra, who delivered unforgettable emotions to all attendees.
