Dramatic Moment at the Street Fest Festival
A shocking incident occurred on June 6 in Halych, located in the Prykarpattia region, when the stage gave way during singer Iryna Fedyshyn’s set at the Street Fest festival. The collapse happened just as a male audience member was proposing to his girlfriend. Fortunately, no one was injured, and the young man was able to finish his proposal—she said yes.
Despite the disruption, Fedyshyn’s concert raised 150,000 hryvnias for the Ukrainian military. The singer has been a steadfast supporter of the armed forces, having purchased 450 vehicles for the army since the full-scale war began. In recognition of her charity work, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy awarded her the 'Golden Heart' honor.
Reaction to the Incident
The news was first reported by the outlet 'Glavcom,' which monitored social media for details. The event’s host described the collapse as a true disaster. Nonetheless, the festival continued, and Fedyshyn remained in the spotlight—not just for the stage mishap, but also for her ongoing philanthropic efforts.
This event stood out not only for the unusual stage failure but also for highlighting the importance of supporting the army during wartime. Iryna Fedyshyn continues to actively raise funds for the military, demonstrating her resilience and dedication to the cause.
