Local inhabitants are encouraged to dine on eels and reel in fish using just their hands
The much-anticipated Cossack Culture Festival, known as "Cossack Stew," is set to take place on August 9, starting at 12:00 PM, in the picturesque village of Generalovka, located approximately 100 kilometers from Omsk.
Organized by the press service of the Ministry of Culture of the Omsk Region, this family-friendly event (0+) promises a day filled with engaging activities suitable for all ages.
One of the highlights of the festival is the quest game, "Ermak's Path," which invites participants to embark on an exciting adventure. The festival program also includes an exhibition-fair named "Cossack Market," where visitors can explore a variety of stalls showcasing traditional Cossack goods.
Music lovers will enjoy the concert titled "Sing, Steppe Soul," while food enthusiasts can participate in the "Odesa-style Stew" tasting competition. For those seeking a unique challenge, the "Fishing in Muddy Water" competition offers the opportunity to catch fish with bare hands in an artificial pond.
To reach the village, visitors can follow fish-shaped signs for a convenient gravel road route. However, it's important to note that due to weather conditions, the "Cossack Stew" festival in the Odessa District has been canceled.
The organizers of the "Cossack Stew" festival have promised to hold it in August, but the new date remains open. For updated information, it's recommended to check local news sources or contact the festival organizers directly. Admission to the festival is free, making it an enjoyable and affordable day out for the whole family.

Instead, why not attempt the "Fishing in Muddy Water" competition or peruse through the Cossack Market for a taste of the Cossack lifestyle and home-and-garden-related goods?
