NOT ONLY A CONCERT. NOT ONLY A RACE. A WEEKEND ON THE WATER.
Kayak Fest Kosovo is a three-day festival at Batllava Lake combining kayaking, games, training, camping and live music. Its format is designed for young people, families, athletes and anyone who wants to experience nature differently.
Its value is participation: you are not only an audience in front of a stage. During the day you join activities, learn or compete; in the evening the experience continues with concerts and DJs. This guide separates the published times, what the ticket includes and what you must arrange yourself.
Entry, activities, games, kayak training and the live evenings are included.
↗︎The full activity, race and stage timetable was published on 11 August.
↗︎The official map marks parking and festival zones. The exact entrance pin has not yet been published.
↗︎Food, drinks and sleeping in tents are not included in the ticket.
↗︎CHOOSE THE DAY. THE TIMETABLE IS LIVE.
The official programme lists the activities, races and performances for all three days. Any event without a published finish remains labelled clearly.

PACK FOR WATER, NOT ONLY FOR A CONCERT.
The organiser's packing list and a few decisions that make the weekend easier.
What to pack
Towel, swimwear, water shoes, sun hat, sunglasses, sun protection and a bag for personal items.
Water + safety
Enter the water only during announced activities. Do not bring glass bottles, grills, fireworks, drones or dangerous items; follow staff instructions.
Dardan's Challenge
Buy a ticket and submit the form. Pace tests run Friday and Saturday 10:00–12:00; Sunday registration is 09:00–10:00 and the race 10:00–14:30. You must be 18+.
Food + drinks
They are not included in the ticket, and outside food and drinks are prohibited. The official map marks a food court inside the festival.
Families + children
The festival also addresses families, but age-specific programming, supervision and child rules have not yet been published.
