KYIV WINE FESTIVAL

Location: Tetrapak plant territory, Kiev, Ukraine
Architects: Pavlo Peker, Karyna Sydorenko, Bohdan Filonov, Oleg Shaynoga
Number of visitors: 10,000
Implemented in 2019

A festival project for ten thousand people, organized by Good Wine. We studied visitor behavior at similar events, analyzed organizer requirements, and:
•To prevent wait times longer than a minute, we calculated the exact number of entry turnstiles needed.
•To avoid crowding, we separated guest flows, allowing people to move along dedicated routes without crossing queues for vendors or disrupting those seated at tables or relaxing on the lawns.
•We strategically distributed sales points to ensure all businesses had equally favorable conditions.
•The children’s area was placed separately within a fenced space with controlled entry and exit.
•We calculated the necessary number of tables, chairs, poufs, and open lawn spaces for anyone who wanted to lounge.
The event space was intuitive to navigate—that was our goal.
