MEET THE FIRST HEADLINER
Ukrainian singer and songwriter ENLEO, who’s coming all the way from Ukraine to perform live exclusively for our audience in Canada.
ENLEO is an artist from Mariupol who rose to fame through emotional covers of global hits, including Tom Odell’s “Another Love” and Hozier’s “Take Me to Church.” His Ukrainian-language renditions struck a chord with millions of listeners and soon led him to writing his own original music.
In November 2023, ENLEO released his debut album “Molodist” (“Youth”) — a powerful and personal reflection on war, loss, and hope, including a track dedicated to a close friend who was killed in Mariupol.
His music is a blend of raw sincerity, experimentation, and deep emotion. ENLEO is on a mission to revive the Ukrainian rock scene and continues to inspire with his honest and unique sound.


Camping at Gulbash takes place at Beaverfoot Lodge – a stunning, wild, and private location in the mountains.
It’s 2.5–3 hours from Calgary, 5 hours from Edmonton, and 9 hours from Vancouver. This land used to be part of a national park and remains beautifully untouched – but it’s not a serviced campground.
This is a wild, open camping field with no electrical hookups, no water disposal, and no permanent infrastructure for RVs. You bring everything with you: tents, sleeping bags, mats, water (although spring water is available on site), and anything else you may need. There are no stores or towns within 40 km, so come fully prepared.
You can also sleep in your car or RV. Car parking will be separate from the camping zone this year. If you're bringing an RV, it's an extra $100 per vehicle for the full weekend — one flat fee per group.
Camping and parking are already included in your ticket price. No extra fees unless you bring an RV.
There are 4 permanent showers on-site. We can’t guarantee hot water or full water supply at all times – the system runs on a small hydro station and depends on electricity and stored water. Most guests last year used the nearby river to cool off – it’s clean and refreshing, though chilly!
If you want to be sure about your shower, consider getting a solar camping shower bag – a black portable bag with a showerhead that warms up in the sun (about $15–20 at outdoor stores).
For toilets: there are 8 permanent flushing toilets with sinks, and we’ll also place 10 portable toilets around the key areas – the camping field, main stage, and DJ zone.

ABOUT
GULBASH 2024
A unique open-air festival that brings music, art, and an unforgettable camping experience!
Our first-ever Gulbash Festival took place over the long weekend from August 31 to September 2 in the stunning mountains near Golden, BC. Nestled at Beaverfoot Lodge, we were surrounded by breathtaking mountain views, making it the perfect escape into nature.

We packed 46 hours of nearly non-stop entertainment, featuring two stages: one for live performances, including our headliners Pianoboy and Kazka Band from Ukraine (Kazka's hit song has over 1.5 billion listens!), and the other for techno lovers, headlined by Belgian Dj Lando Riske. Our friends from Sabbath took charge of the techno stage, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their support!
But Gulbash is much more than just music. Our festival offers a wide variety of activities that cater to all kinds of interests. From group hikes to nearby waterfalls, yoga sessions, bartender show, a vintage market, to an outdoor theater, there’s something for everyone. Whether you're chilling at the campsite or joining the action, you’ll never run out of things to do.
Gulbash is not only for Ukrainians. Our first event was a success, attracting a diverse crowd of both Ukrainians and local Canadians. The response was overwhelming, and we’re thrilled to hear that many are planning to return next year, bringing their friends along for the adventure!
ABOUT
GULBASH 2025
We know that Gulbash 2024 wasn’t perfect. With only three months to prepare, there were areas we could improve on, and we’ve taken all the feedback to heart. This year, we started working on Gulbash 2025 right after the last festival ended. We’re bringing in a larger team of professionals to help us elevate the experience. Our goal is to make this next festival even bigger and better!
We’re currently scouting a new location closer to Calgary and are working hard to secure final dates for the event. Our aim is to host it over the long weekend again, offering two full days and nights of music, fun, and relaxation. It’s your chance to break free from the daily grind and immerse yourself in the festival atmosphere.
This year, tickets will start in September at just $80, and we’ve made things even simpler by including both camping and parking in the price. To keep things fair, the ticket price will increase by $10 each month. So, in October, tickets will be $90, in November $100, and so on, all the way up to the festival.
Stay tuned for updates on our social media channels. See at Gulbash 2025❤️

F.A.Q.
Who will be the headliners of this Gulbash 2025?
The first official headliner of the festival is ENLEO. The second - Tvorchi Band.
What is included in the ticket price?
Unlike the previous year, we have already included camping and parking in the price, so no additional fees.
Is it possible to bring alcohol and cook food?
Yes, but only in the camping area.
Will it be possible to pay by card?
Yes.
How will the price change?
Will grow by $10 every month and at the entrance will be $200 for the entire fest.
Will it be possible to buy a ticket for 1 day?
Yes, they will appear closer to the date of the festival.
Can I bring my kids to Gulbash FEST?
Yes — but with important limitations.
The festival grounds will be 19+ only, in line with British Columbia’s alcohol regulations.
Security will check IDs at the entrance, and no one under 19 will be allowed inside the main festival zone.
However, camping is located just 300 meters from the main area, and it will serve as a Family-Friendly Zone. That means:
Kids are welcome in the camping area
You’ll still be able to hear and even see parts of the festival from there
Perfect if one parent wants to enjoy the show while the other stays with the little ones
Ticket info for kids:
Children 5 and under — free
Ages 6 to 18 — $60 (covers camping access only)
Ages 19+ — full festival ticket required
We love seeing families come together in nature — so while your kids can’t enter the fenced-off main grounds, you’re still welcome to camp and soak up the vibe with them.
Will any funds from this event be donated to support the military?
Last year, we had plans to donate a portion of the festival’s profit to support the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Unfortunately, the event ended with a significant financial loss, so we weren’t in a position to contribute directly. However, our partners did organize a charity auction during the festival, and the proceeds were donated to Ukraine. We didn’t track the exact amount, as the auction was run independently.
This year, learning from that experience, we’re launching a large-scale Lotto Tron — a prize draw where participation is based on donations. All funds raised through this initiative will go directly to support Ukraine.
Additionally, we hope the festival will break even or turn a profit this year, allowing us to donate a portion of the proceeds to the cause.
