History
2025
When the old world was crumbling, and the new one had not yet been born, the Faine People found themselves At the Break of the Ages, experiencing their own and shared transformations, mastering more and more skills and unraveling the mysteries of our time, in order to finally reach the long-awaited new stage.
Here, among the musical worlds, everyone found a piece of themselves. The songs did not just sound, they healed wounds and awakened the deepest desires for change.
On August 1-3, 2025, thousands of hearts beat in unison again in Lviv on the territory of !FESTrepublic.
This year, it was possible to revive a tent city called "Aurora City", which was located in Znesinnia Park, where various festival locations were open to everyone with free admission: from the Yoga Studio to the Archery Range, as well as interactive activities and training from the Brigade "Azov" NGU. New locations have appeared on the main festival territory: Costume Room, Science Laboratory and even Tarot Reading from the festival "fortune teller".

After a year of transformations and energy accumulation, the portal of the Faine Misto festival opened the way to its universe for the second time in Lviv on the territory of !FESTrepublic with compliance with the safety rules during the martial law in Ukraine. The festival gathered people and their powerful elements in one place to accumulate as much energy as possible to support the military and each other. After all, each of us is now creating history on earth, which will be the stuff of legends in the future. Although the area of the location has not increased, the location of the festival itself has. Nearby, in Znesinia Park, the Alley of Civic Organizations and educational locations from the Azov NSU brigade were placed. On festival back Reggae Stage named after Max Rudsky - a multiple stage participant who died in the war. This year, this stage was located 20 minutes on foot from the main location, where the swimming pool was waiting on the territory of the Fine People!

But the time has come to talk about it, so by making a powerful effort, the festival Portal was able to open and accept everyone who needed it. Being able to safely hold the 2023 Faine Misto:Stories Worth Hear proved once again that nothing is impossible for the Fini People, as a significant amount of money and inner energy was raised to promote Victory.

2022
With the start of a full-scale invasion, the Faine Misto festival completely changed its vector of movement. There was no chance of holding a full-fledged festival, so in order to guarantee security in the conditions of martial law, Faine Misto Online was announced, where for a symbolic donation, the most dedicated festival-goers received access to a closed chat, where on the dates when Faine Misto 2022 was supposed to take place, there were many waiting for them surprises from the organizers. During the online festival, Fine People had the opportunity to enjoy exclusive performances and video greetings from many artists, including: Me and That Man, Bad Omens, Arch Enemy, Heart of a Coward, Ghostkid, Beyond The Black, Onuka, Amaranthe, Eluveitie, Druga Rika, Zhadan and dogs and many others. Ukrainian artists were in constant contact in the chat, and the announcement of each surprise was made by the constant host Myach Dreadbol. In the morning there was a reminder about charity and video calls with the Pastor of Fine Misto. Everything is like at a real festival. Among other things, as part of Faine Misto Online, a flag with autographs of the participants of the Wacken Open Air 2022 festival was raffled off. During the Faine Misto Online festival, about 200,000 hryvnias were collected, which were later added to the purchase of a crossfit field for the fighters of the Azov NSU brigade, who undergo training.
FAINE MISTO X ROCKOWA NOC

Usually ``Rockowa Noc`` is held on weekends, organisers added an extra festival day in 2022 to collaborate on a charitable cause with Ukrainian colleagues. This event served as a breath of fresh air for those made to leave their homes on the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
