The EU-funded festival was opened by the Chief Coordinator of the Government of the Brčko District of BiH, Esas Kadrić, announced the KIC pop choir.

The Kic Pop Choir states that in the ceremonial hall of the Brčko Cultural Center, the audience enjoyed powerful choral interpretations that erased borders and connected people through music. They heard: Ružo crvena, Tužno more, but also traditional Bosnian, Serbian, Macedonian and Montenegrin songs. Under the conductor's leadership Mladen Čelebić The KIC pop choir was warmly welcomed during and after the performance of the compositions: Sejdefu majka buđaše, Još ne sviće rujna zora, Crnogorski miks, the songs - Titograda, Niđe nebo nije plavo, Devojko mala, and at the request of the festival organizers, with sighs and a few tears in the audience, they also performed the song Bilećanka, from the popular Podgorica choir project "Bez dileme - antifašizam".

"Before the festival concert, in the afternoon hours at the Dom islahijeta, a round table "Music as a bridge between people in the Balkans" was organized, and the common observation of all participants - conductors and choir managers, and the main "culprit" for organizing the festival, Mr. Fikret Piskavica, is that music knows no borders between people, between countries, or nations, and that we should not put the burden of the past on the shoulders of young people. Snežana Burzan Vuksanović, founder and manager of the KIC pop choir, pointed out that people from the world of culture and art are characterized by tolerance, immense love for people and communication without borders, and she pointed out that the region needs as many meetings, hugs, communication and festivals like this as possible. She wished that the next festival in Brčko would be called "Let love unite us" and continue to promote good music, dialogue, and togetherness," the KIC pop choir concluded in a statement.
