VOPLI VIDOPLYASSOVA NORTH AMERICAN TOUR 2025
40 Years from Ukraine to the World – Vopli Vidoplyassova 2025 North American TourFor four decades, Vopli Vidoplyassova (VV) has been Ukraine’s ultimate cultural ambassador, with anthems sung by heart by every Ukrainian. As the first Ukrainian band to tour internationally and gain global fame, their music has crossed borders, bringing the spirit of Ukraine to the world through their explosive fusion of punk, rock, and folk.
From the Soviet underground to global festival stages, VV has shaped the sound of generations and remains a symbol of Ukrainian identity and resistance. They made history performing at WOMAD, Sziget, Montreux Jazz Festival, Woodstock Poland, and Rock am Ring. Over the years, VV has collaborated with world music icons like Goran Bregović, Manu Chao, and Khaled, continuously pushing boundaries. Their influence is undeniable—Eugene Hütz of Gogol Bordello calls them his musical teachers, a legacy now featured in a recent Gogol Bordello documentary.
Beyond his work with Vopli Vidoplyassova, Oleg Skrypka is also the founder of Kraina Mriy, one of Ukraine’s oldest and most influential festivals. A platform for cultural exchange and the development of new Ukrainian artists, Kraina Mriy has also become one of the most credible charity organizations supporting hospitals and other vital Ukrainian causes.
Now, after almost a decade, VV is returning to North America for an explosive tour celebrating 40 years of music, resilience, and cultural revolution! Experience their legendary hits, including Весна (Spring), Танці (Dances), Галя, ходи (Halia, Come Here), Країна мрій (Land of Dreams), Любов (Love), and День народження (Birthday)—and be ready for musical surprises!
This tour is more than music—it’s a mission. 100% of the proceeds from charity auctions during each show will go directly to support Ukraine, including medical aid and humanitarian relief through Kraina Mriy.
