The “Constellation” Festival has завершил its 7th season — vibrant, eventful, and truly inspiring.

Congratulations to all the winners! Their names have already been published on the website, where you can also find photos and highlights from the festival events.

 

A special highlight this year was the work of the young journalists’ team from the Online School of Journalism “KidsMedia”.

They came to the festival to capture its story: filming reports, interviewing jury members and participants, and catching the most vivid moments and genuine emotions.

Thanks to their perspective, the festival will live on not only in memory, but also in stories we can return to again and again.

Registration for the 2027 season will open on October 1, 2026.

See you at the Constellation Festival 2027! 

  We light the stars ourselves!
