ParanFest Yerevan

Yerevan, Armenia🇦🇲 Past

ParanFest Yerevan runs 23–24 May in Yerevan, Armenia.

Two-day 18+ shibari / Japanese-culture festival held in Yerevan, Armenia on May 23-24, 2026. The official site frames PARANFEST as the first Armenian festival of Japanese culture, voluntary bondage and rope bondage / shibari, with performances, educational lectures, workshops, a market zone and open discussions. The public Telegram channel, Instagram announcement and final schedule make it structurally useful for the map because the roster connects multiple existing Russian-language and European scene entries, including Nick Freerider, Tati Limati, Zevsa, Aleksei Kalatsky, Nik Yourknots, Vasilisa Lesnaya, august, Entangled Witch and Aleksandra Bor / Trojm.
