Retro Picnic in Dnipropetrovsk will take place on August 29
On August 29, the Quarter of Arts will host one of the most anticipated events of this summer. For one day, the residents of Dnipropetrovsk will return in 50s-60s years of the last century and visit the picnic in a retro style.
Retro Picnic is a holiday for the whole family, where every visitor, regardless of age, will be able to find something interesting to do. The organizers have prepared various entertainment programs with cars, dancing, food, music, and clothing – all in retro style.
On this day, on the embankment in Dnipropetrovsk, stretching from Poplavok restaurant (7 Lenin Lane) to the hotel Parus, several locations will be working, offering garage sales, preparing ice cream, burgers, and conducting a variety of creative dance workshops.
A thing it is really hard to imagine the 50s and 60s without is rockabilly music, so the organizers won’t deprive the guests of musical pleasure. Rockabilly band WiseGuyz will be performing here.
In addition, there are some events on a picnic planned exclusively for male visitor: the representatives of a strong kind will get an opportunity to enjoy all benefits from Clippers – to cut a beard, pick up a stylish haircut, and just to relax. Another important event for men, which will be held during the picnic, is retro cars demonstration D.A.R.S. The Retro Picnic evening will finish with watching a movie outdoors.
Organizers of the event Iulia and Dmytro Gladkov noted, “The holiday is devoted to the wonderful times of the mid-twentieth century, when things were made with love and for a long time, and people wanted to live and enjoy their lives. All people interested in the event, regardless of age, sex, and social status can participate in the picnic. We ask the visitors to show a mutual respect and to help in creating the pleasant atmosphere of one of the brightest periods in the history of mankind”.
Also, all guests are asked to follow the rules and warnings set by the organizers.
You may and should:
- Be dressed in the style of 40s – 60s
- Bring a plaidy and a picnic basket with yummies
- Take the kids with you (do not forget to look after the too-active ones J)
- Play, watch, dance, learn, communicate, and get a lot of satisfaction from what is going on.

Get too enthusiastic with alcohol: is bad to drink in the heat, a lot of children are around, and you can miss something interesting.
You must not (at all!):
- Be rude and capricious
- Litter and spoil anything
- Be unhappy and sad.
So, all the guests and residents of Dnipropetrovsk, or retro fans, just have to come to the Retro Picnic, which will take place in the Quarter of Arts on August 29.
