The main idea of the festival is – for everyone who visits "Novograd" a new vision of a new city image will be opened that will help to reflect on life, on the world, on oneself …
The charitable component of the Festival is that during all events the citizens would be offered to take part in the charitable fund raising. The collected funds will go on for purchase of the parapodium (the device intended for active rehabilitation and movement of patients with traumas of a spinal cord).
