3 festivals decided to take the UPBEAT Pledge and we couldn’t be more happier! Mumush, Polja, Trefpunt, welcome in the UPBEAT Family!
Mumush Festival (Romania)
MUMUSH is not just a festival, it is a community in growth. It is a vision of a world we build together with nature. It is a place for self-expression & conversation. A place for freedom and creativity. A place where we can let go of our fears together to change ourselves & our future. We want to celebrate change & creativity through good vibes & good music, workshops, jams, conversation & chill.
Polja Festival (Serbia)
Polja is a non-profit, sustainable festival and “music colony”, founded in the spirit of collective action.
