Until 2013, it used to take place annually in second week of September in Koktebel on the Black Sea coast.

Since 2006, the festival is held in the second half of September, during so-called "velvet" resort season.

Despite its young age, the festival has already hosted performances by De-Phazz, Stanley Clarke, Billy Cobham, Nino Katamadze, Us3 and others.

The main stages do not have any entrance fees and are located at the square right near the water, so that the public can sit on the beach during the performance.

In 2014, the festival was not held in Crimea, but in Zatoka and Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi (both in Odesa Oblast).
