Ukrainian Cultural Festival 2026
The Ukrainian Cultural Festival (UCF) returns for its fourth year, bringing the best of Ukrainian arts and culture to New York City. Produced by Razom for Ukraine’s Connect team, UCF brings together performing arts, cinema, theater, literature, and visual arts across some of the city’s most respected cultural institutions.
This year’s festival runs October 18 through November 6, 2026. It opens at Carnegie Hall with a piano concerto premiere and closes there with a performance by one of Ukraine’s leading youth choral ensembles. In between: a weekend of curated film, a workshop presentation of an acclaimed UK theater production ahead of its US tour, and literary conversations.
Programming
This is an invitation to New York to discover Ukrainian creativity, resilience, and the shared values behind it.
Ukrainian filmmakers have been expanding the language of cinema for generations, influencing some of its greatest artists and now carried forward by a bold new wave. Get to know them.
