BASSnNOVA is a name built on two primal forces: Bass — the origin pulse of sound, the first vibration that moves through the universe — and Nova — a newly ignited star, a symbol of emergence and brilliance.
Together, they represent the birth of something new: a space where sound, music, and human expression converge. At the festival, new talents unfold like stars — through music, lectures, and workshops — creating fresh connections between people and the frequencies that unite them.
BASSnNOVA is where new sound becomes new light.

About
BASSnNOVA is a living space for creative self-expression, conscious presence, and meaningful human connection. At its heart, the festival exists to expand the circle — to bring people together through rhythm, art, shared experience, and authentic contact.
BASSnNOVA unfolds in a warm, intimate, family-oriented environment. Music, shared meals, creative practices, and collective rituals weave together into one living field of experience. Within this space, people can rest and restore, dance and celebrate, create and collaborate, meet new people, and experience themselves more fully.
BASSnNOVA welcomes approximately 100 participants. This intimate scale nurtures closeness, visibility, and meaningful exchange. Each person becomes a vital part of the collective atmosphere.
Presence becomes practice. Connection becomes culture.
We meet one another with openness, respect, and compassion. Each person brings a unique energy into the collective field.
Music, movement, visual art, ideas, and collaboration are welcomed as living forms of expression.
Every encounter offers space for new understanding and friendship. We encourage the widening of perspectives.
Contribution arises from inner resonance. Time, energy, skills, and ideas are shared as expressions of belonging.
The festival unfolds through collaboration. It evolves through the presence, creativity, and engagement of its community.
Program
Workshops, lectures, and experiences crafted to inspire connection, creativity, and presence.
Lena Bondareva
A playful workshop about freedom through body and voice. Through music, movement, and non-verbal expression, we explore different inner states in a safe and supportive atmosphere. We close by transitioning into a free dance from a more open, embodied, and authentic state.
Nadia Reznikova
We often think of intimacy as closeness, comfort, or even passion. But what if intimacy actually begins where all of that becomes a little bit uncertain?
Masha Shakti
Start your day by reconnecting with your body. A lighthearted somatic journey to help you loosen up, drop into your body, and come back to your true self. Expect playful movement, sensual circles, and deliciously silly moments.
Masha & Dylan
A light and playful introduction to Hustle — a partner dance built on improvisation, rhythm, and connection. Open to all levels — just come to move, smile, and be present.
Giving Back
Supporting children with disabilities.
The core purpose of the BASSnNOVA Weekender goes beyond music and gathering. We are coming together to support a meaningful cause — raising funds for a boarding school in the Ukrainian town of Dovbyska dedicated to children with disabilities.
The funds collected through the festival will go toward improving their access to sports and physical development — including the purchase of training equipment, exercise machines, and creating better conditions for movement, rehabilitation, and overall well-being.
Guidelines
Our festival is built on trust, care, and shared responsibility. By joining us, you become part of a living community that co-creates the atmosphere of the space.
Treat everyone with kindness, dignity, and awareness. Different backgrounds, identities, and perspectives enrich our community. We honour that diversity.
Consent is essential in all interactions — physical, emotional, creative, and digital. Ask. Listen. Respect the answer.
Take responsibility for your well-being. Stay hydrated, rest when needed, and look out for those around you.
Follow guidance from facilitators and safety volunteers. Communicate openly if something feels uncomfortable.
The festival space is a shared home. Leave no trace. Reduce waste. Protect nature. Treat the environment with gratitude and care.
Music and celebration are powerful forces. Engage with them mindfully. Make choices that support both your well-being and the well-being of the community.
Everyone deserves to feel welcome. We actively create an environment free from exclusion, humiliation, or discrimination.
This is not a service environment — it is a shared experience. Bring your skills, ideas, energy, and presence.
If something feels misaligned, speak to a team member. We value transparency, listening, and respectful conversation.
The atmosphere of the festival is not created by organizers alone. It lives through each participant. Your presence, actions, and awareness shape the whole.
By purchasing a ticket and attending the festival, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to abide by these Community & Safety Guidelines. The organizers reserve the right to take appropriate action when necessary to protect the integrity and well-being of the community.
