Fantasy Park

Incredible magic of light, an exhibition that amazes every visitor, and all this can be found in the restored park in Kharkiv called Fantasy Park (Fentezi Park). From the very first step, you are immersed in a world of the hidden and extraordinary. Music chosen to match the themes of the locations heightens the impression of what you see. With each step, you want to go farther and farther into the depths of the park.

On the grounds of this creative space, young sculptors, designers, lighting specialists, architects, musicians and artists have brought their creative ideas to life. To support talented people, the city of Kharkiv announced a competition for creative projects, the winners of which will have the opportunity to realize their original ideas through investment and sponsorship.

Kharkiv’s Fentezi Park is laid out in such a way that, while walking along the endless paths, you can rest on a bench and listen to music echoing from everywhere. On the park grounds, a large children's playground and a stage for concerts and performances were created, the fountain was renovated, and pedestrian paths were laid out.

The creative space is formed by a variety of open-air installations. Each one recalls an episode from a fairy tale that comes to life as dusk falls. Thematic sets are lit with multicolored light, creating magical compositions that appeal to both children and adults.

For example, the popular domed structure is designed so that when you are inside it and make sounds, they are reflected from the dome walls and reproduced as vibrations. And all this is accompanied by multicolored lighting. 

Or the sculpture in the shape of a book from which trees and mushrooms grow. And all this reminds us of the forest from the children's fairy tale Alice in Wonderland.

There is also a location in the shape of a book, on whose pages a story is recreated. The high castle is lit in various colors, inviting you to look inside and learn about its history. Every tree, every bush involved in one or another location beckons you. And most importantly, they are all different and charming in their own way. Next to each one, you want to take a couple of photos and stay to explore it in detail.

Each structure is a work of art that causes surprise and delight at the same time. Each structure has its own light and sound special effects, which create this unusual atmosphere and sense of mystery in Fentezi Park. Here you can not only walk in the evenings, but also take part in various celebrations. After the reconstruction, Fantasy Park received updates to many things: new paths were laid, the old fountains were renovated, a stage for performances was set up, and most importantly, a unique location was created where amazing installations by creative and talented Ukrainians will continue to appear. In the future, the park plans to host many concerts, performances, fairs, exhibitions of works and other events. A considerable amount of money was spent on creating Fantasy Park. The park was rebuilt over 2 years. There is no need to buy an entrance ticket to the park. Entry is free. If you want to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of illumination, come at dusk. At this time, the park begins to come alive and gathers a great many people.

Fentezi Park will be interesting for both adults and children.
