During its conduct, participants will learn about Olympic values and the achievements of Belarusian athletes at the main four-year competitions.

At the "Brigantina" children's playground, an art interactive "Play with Us - Draw Yourself" will take place, organized by the "ArtChaos" gallery. The evening program of the festival opens with the performance of the theater-studio of film actors "That Same Munchausen." The first day will conclude with a screening of a famous sports film at an open-air cinema.

On June 24, the celebration will continue with the "Kapital Mesta" fest

At "Vytoki" a new interesting location will be presented – "Games of Our Yard". Participants will be offered to complete 5 quest stages – "elastic band", "hopscotch", "potato", slingshot shooting and others, for which they can receive memorable souvenirs from the organizers.

Also, the final of the regional stage of the new intellectual and educational project "Vytoki. Quiz" will be held in Glubokoye. The project will continue in each of the cities where "Vytoki-2023" will take place.
