UNFINISHED Festival, a Romanian-based gathering where you pay with your time to join is becoming a global movement. With a tiny team, in the heart of Europe, in a city often confused with other capitals – Bucharest, UNFINISHED managed to gather annually, since 2016, thousands of people around the world. From Brazil to Italy, and from France to USA, this vibrant community of over 20,000 individuals spanning across 71 countries, is meeting with one single purpose: to grow; but also to learn and experience together the thin line between disciplines.

As every year, participating in the festival costs time and commitment. The only way to gain access to the UNFINISHED community is by filling out an application, where those interested must talk about themselves, their values and motivation, and what they bring to the festival with their presence. Registrations have opened on the website www.unfinished.ro and only 3141 participants will be accepted to participate in this edition.

The event will take place between September 22 and 24 and will take place in the HOUSE OF IDEAS (University House, Dionisie Lupu Street, 46) and its garden in Bucharest.

Cristian Movilă, the founder of the UNFINISHED festival, stated that “the value of time is priceless for us. It is the most valuable currency and I believe there is no fairer exchange than this. We often think that we have time for a lot, especially when we are young, but at some point we realize that time flies extremely fast and we realize that we would be better off “spending” more time on those experiences that would have transformed our life. We invest time and dedication year after year to create memorable experiences for our community, and we ask for exactly the same in return: the time you spend answering our questions, and then, if you’re accepted, time to explore UNFINISHED. We expect tens of thousands of people to sign up, like every year, of which we will only accept 3141 people. It’s our way of making sure we have a community of incredible, open-minded and diverse people around the idea of UNFINISHED.”
