Što je to što radimo i pokušavamo graditi u Kaštelima!!!
Inkluzija nije samo fraza, već treba biti temeljno načelo u oblikovanju naših života. Lovestock festival posvećen je stvaranju inkluzivnog društva u svim područjima života. Naša filozofija je borba protiv stereotipa i diskriminacije, rušenje barijera i poticanje dijaloga koji promiče razumijevanje i empatiju. Lovestock festival svojim inicijativama želi poticati pravednost, jednakost, uključenost i sigurnost kroz sustavne, obuhvatne i inovativne programe. Početkom srpnja i ove godine idilične će prostore grada Kaštela, u samom srcu Dalmacije, ispuniti gomila dobro raspoloženih i zabave željnih mladih ljudi. Dotad obični i svakodnevni prostori pretvorit će se oazu moderne glazbe, dok će festivalsku pozornicu, trgove i plaže preplaviti prepoznatljiva glazbena imena, umjetnici različitih profila i veseli žamor djece.
U srpnju mjesecu održava se Lovestock, festival glazbe i umjetnosti koji je već proglašen najboljim malim festivalom na ovim prostorima. Osim ove pohvale i vjetra u leđa, ono što je zanimljivo kod Lovestock festivala jest da je, suprotno većini festivala na obali, organizacija u potpunosti u rukama mlade domaće ekipe.
Mladi tim, predvođen iskusnim voditeljem, umjesto da je krenuo linijom manjeg otpora i festival organizirao na čisto komercijalnim i profitabilnim principima, odlučio je život udahnuti i na razvoj potaknuti volonterizam. Kroz nekoliko godina rada i organizacije festivala sposobni su momci i djevojke dokazali da se uspjeti može usprkos jakoj konkurenciji. Počeli smo od nule, vođeni istim interesima, ljubavlju prema glazbi, zabavi, sugrađanima ali i organizaciji te smo pokazali kako uspjeti može i nešto moderno, drugačije i mladalačko. 
Samostalno radimo, nezavisni smo, trudimo se, ali imamo i pomoć apsolutno cijele zajednice. Prepoznali su nas prijatelji iz Grada, lokalnih poduzeća, posjetitelji... Radimo, ali nismo ni blizu da možemo samo to raditi. Bilo bi idealno da Lovestock bude festival koji se organizira i traje cijelu godinu. 
Svaki event, bilo da je poslovni, privatni, sponzorski ili neki drugi, ima svoju priču, pravila i načine organizacije, a svaki organizator ima svoj način rada. Ono što sam želio reći kroz ovu priču vezanu za Lovestock, jest da su za uspješnu organizaciju potrebna jaka energija i entuzijazam kao ključ uspjeha. 
Lovestock festival ponosi se svojom raznovrsnom paletom umjetnika koji izvode isključivo autorsku glazbu. Festival donosi širok raspon glazbenih žanrova pa su posjetitelji zasuti prekrasnim melodijama i ritmovima i pozitivnim porukama koje šire mir, toleranciju, inkluzivnost i ljubav.
Paralelno s glazbenim izvedbama, Lovestock festival nudi i izložbe slika i umjetničkih radova. Posjetitelji imaju priliku diviti se talentu umjetnika iz različitih dijelova područja  umjetnosti koji izlažu svoje djela. Festivalske izložbe donose različite stilove, tehnike i teme, od apstrakcije do realizma. Svaki rad predstavlja autentičnu izjavu umjetnika i doprinosi širokom spektru kreativnosti na festivalu.
Lovestock festival ne samo da pruža izvanredne umjetničke izvedbe, već i potiče povezivanje kultura i stvaranje mostova između ljudi. Kroz glazbu i umjetnost, festival slavi različite tradicije, jezike i običaje. Izvođači i umjetnici susreću se na ovom mjestu kako bi podijelili svoje talente i izrazili svoju kreativnost, a posjetitelji mogu doživjeti bogatstvo kulturne raznolikosti i biti inspirirani univerzalnim jezikom umjetnosti.
Lovestock festival je više od samo izvedbi i izložbi. Ova manifestacija također nudi edukativne programe i radionice za sve uzraste. Posjetitelji mogu sudjelovati u raznim radionicama, gdje imaju priliku naučiti više i dobiti uvid u kreativne umjetničke procese.
Poseban naglasak od samih svojih početaka stavljamo na djecu za koju želimo da odrasta u vrijednostima tolerancije, ljubavi, uvažavanja i inkluzije. Stoga upravo za njih, iz godine u godinu, organiziramo kreativne radionice, pričaonice i bajkaonice koje uz stručno vodstvo približavaju, kako našu tradiciju tako i moderne umjetničke vrijednosti.
Lovestock festival donosi nevjerojatno iskustvo glazbe, umjetnosti i kulture. Sa svojim impresivnim nizom izvođača iz različitih država i raznolikosti umjetničkih radova, festival slavi bogatstvo različitosti. Ova manifestacija povezuje ljude stvarajući mostove kroz glazbu i umjetnost. Lovestock festival je jedinstvena prilika za proširenje horizonta, otkrivanje novih talenata i duboko uranjanje u svijet umjetnosti. Festival je nezaboravno iskustvo koje će vas nadahnuti i ispuniti čarolijom glazbe i umjetnosti.
Ulaz na sva događanja je besplatan!

What is it that we are doing and trying to build in Kaštela!!!
Inclusion is not just a phrase, but should be a fundamental principle in shaping our lives. Lovestock Festival is dedicated to creating an inclusive society in all areas of life. Our philosophy is to fight against stereotypes and discrimination, break down barriers and encourage dialogue that promotes understanding and empathy. With its initiatives, Lovestock Festival aims to promote justice, equality, inclusion and security through systematic, comprehensive and innovative programs. This July, the idyllic spaces of the town of Kaštela, in the very heart of Dalmatia, will be filled with crowds of young people in good spirits and eager for fun. Until then, ordinary and everyday spaces will be transformed into an oasis of modern music, while the festival stage, squares and beaches will be flooded with recognizable musical names, artists of various profiles and the cheerful murmur of children.
Lovestock, a music and art festival that has already been declared the best small festival in this region, is held. Apart from this praise and the wind at our backs, what is interesting about the Lovestock festival is that, unlike most festivals on the coast, the organization is entirely in the hands of a young local team.
The young team, led by an experienced manager, instead of taking the path of least resistance and organizing the festival on purely commercial and profitable principles, decided to breathe life into it and encourage volunteerism to develop. Through several years of work and organization of the festival, capable guys and girls have proven that it is possible to succeed despite strong competition. We started from scratch, guided by the same interests, love for music, entertainment, fellow citizens, but also organization, and we have shown that something modern, different and youthful can also succeed.
We work independently, we are independent, we try, but we also have the help of absolutely the entire community. We have been recognized by friends from the City, local businesses, visitors... We are working, but we are not even close to being able to do that alone. It would be ideal for Lovestock to be a festival that is organized and lasts all year round.
Every event, whether it is business, private, sponsored or otherwise, has its own story, rules and methods of organization, and every organizer has their own way of working. What I wanted to say through this story related to Lovestock is that for a successful organization, strong energy and enthusiasm are needed as the key to success.
The Lovestock festival is proud of its diverse range of artists who perform exclusively original music. The festival brings a wide range of musical genres, so visitors are showered with beautiful melodies and rhythms and positive messages that spread peace, tolerance, inclusivity and love.
In parallel with musical performances, the Lovestock festival also offers exhibitions of paintings and artworks. Visitors have the opportunity to admire the talent of artists from different parts of the art field who exhibit their works. Festival exhibitions bring different styles, techniques and themes, from abstraction to realism. Each work represents an authentic statement of the artist and contributes to the wide spectrum of creativity at the festival.
The Lovestock festival not only provides extraordinary artistic performances, but also encourages connecting cultures and building bridges between people. Through music and art, the festival celebrates different traditions, languages and customs. Performers and artists meet in this place to share their talents and express their creativity, and visitors can experience the richness of cultural diversity and be inspired by the universal language of art.
The Lovestock Festival is more than just performances and exhibitions. This event also offers educational programs and workshops for all ages. Visitors can participate in various workshops, where they have the opportunity to learn more and gain insight into the creative artistic processes.
From the very beginning, we have placed special emphasis on children, whom we want to grow up with the values of tolerance, love, respect and inclusion. Therefore, it is for them, year after year, that we organize creative workshops, storybooks and fairy tales that, with expert guidance, bring together both our tradition and modern artistic values.
The Lovestock Festival brings an incredible experience of music, art and culture. With its impressive array of performers from different countries and a variety of artistic works, the festival celebrates the richness of diversity. This event connects people by building bridges through music and art. Lovestock Festival is a unique opportunity to broaden your horizons, discover new talents and immerse yourself deeply in the world of art. The festival is an unforgettable experience that will inspire and fill you with the magic of music and art.
Admission to all events is free!
