Ad Black Sea has been in Batumi since the very beginning. And that was never a coincidence.
It was part of Vato Kavtaradze’s (Vato Kavtaradze) original idea: a creative festival shouldn’t simply have a location. It should have a soul, a rhythm, a cultural identity of its own.
And somehow, over the years, Batumi became exactly that.
Because Ad Black Sea doesn’t only happen inside festival venues.
It happens somewhere between the talks and the sea.
Between the ideas and the streets.
Between people you came with and people you just met.
Between long creative days and even longer nights.
For a few days, the city itself becomes part of the experience - and creativity turns into something closer to a cultural celebration of ideas, people, friendships, identities, music, conversations, and everything that happens in between.
See you next year. Batumi & Ad Black Sea people ❤️
