Xhade Fest — 4th Edition ❤️‍🔥

We are happy to announce that our partners are the first supporters of
Xhade Fest — 4th Edition this year!

This year marks the second consecutive year of Pro Peace’s continued support for Xhade Fest.

Screening: “Possible Worlds” / “Touch and Haptics”
Xhade Fest wrapped up with a mind-bending screening by Shkamb Jaka & Laureta Hajrullahu. Their works played with the thin line between real and virtual, mixing personal stories, tech, and imagination. A ride through visuals that made us question what’s touchable, what’s digital, and what lives in-between.

(Re)discovering the Spaces for Art and Culture solli së bashku zëra nga Peja, Beogradi dhe Prizreni për të diskutuar se si të rinjtë artistë dhe punëtorët kulturorë arrijnë të gjejnë, ri-marrin dhe krijojnë hapësira të reja për kreativitet.

Me panelistët Teodora Simić dhe Somer Şpat, nën moderimin e Luka Knežević Strika, biseda hapi rrugë për reflektime mbi mënyrën se si këto hapësira, të formuara nga komunitetet dhe për komunitetet, shndërrohen në burime të përbashkëta që forcojnë jetën kulturore lokale.

(Re)discovering the Spaces for Art and Culture okupio je glasove iz Peći, Beograda i Prizrena kako bi razgovarali o tome kako mladi umetnici i kulturni radnici pronalaze, ponovo osvajaju i stvaraju nove prostore za kreativnost.

Sa panelistima Teodora Simić i Somer Şpat, uz moderaciju Luke Knežević Strika, razgovor je otvorio pitanja o tome kako se ovi prostori, oblikovani od zajednice i za zajednicu, pretvaraju u zajedničke resurse koji jačaju lokalni kulturni život.

Xhade Fest ka puls, Presheva ka energji ❤️‍🔥

Thank you to each and every one of you for the love, emotions, and support. The 3rd edition proved that even a small team can create something big when there is passion and belief. The city lit up with 3D Mapping installations and with rhythms that brought together souls, energy, and movement. ✨

Special gratitude to the donors who made it possible: British Council, Heartefact, Pro Peace, OSCE, ZPR Presheva, Municipality of Bujanovac.

Xhade continues to be the space where art, music, and people come together to make Presheva shine.

See you in 2026 xhaders 🚀

Xhade Fest is almost here — three days of music, art, exhibitions, and panel discussions that will turn Presheva into a space of culture, energy, and connection ❤️‍🔥
