- Check the Batumi Festival's official schedule for upcoming concert dates and venues before booking tickets.
- Visitors in Batumi this spring can combine sightseeing with evening classical music performances.
- Book accommodation early, as festival events tend to increase hotel demand in central Batumi.
The Batumi Festival opened this week with a performance by Swedish-Ukrainian violinist Daniel Lozakovich and Canadian pianist Hélène Mercier. The concert marked the start of the festival’s program, which brings international classical musicians to the Black Sea coastal city.
Batumi has in recent years built a reputation for hosting high-profile cultural events during the warmer months, drawing both local audiences and visitors touring Adjara. The festival typically runs alongside the city’s broader spring and summer events calendar, which includes concerts, exhibitions and outdoor performances along the seafront and in the city’s concert halls.
