One of so many events that are part of . Take part in all the events. The week concludes with our festival event on August 30th.

The Embassy of Ukraine in Canada warmly invites everyone to join us for a Flag Raising Ceremony at Ottawa City Hall, marking the Day of the National Flag of Ukraine (August 23), and the 35th Anniversary of the restoration of Ukraine’s Independence (August 24).

📅 Monday, August 24, 2026
🕛 12:00 p.m.
📍 Ottawa City Hall, Marion Dewar Plaza

For Ukrainians, our blue and yellow flag and our Independence are inseparable. 35 years ago, Ukraine restored its place among the world’s independent nations. Today, Ukrainians are once again defending our Independence and Freedom and the right to raise our flag over every Ukrainian city against Russia’s ongoing brutal full-scale armed aggression.

There is special meaning in raising our flag here in Canada - the first Western country to recognize Ukraine’s independence in 1991, and a country that has stood firmly with Ukraine throughout the most difficult years of our modern history.

We invite Ukrainians across Ottawa, our Canadian friends and partners, and everyone who stands with Ukraine to join us for this special moment.

Bring your Ukrainian flags, vyshyvankas, and blue and yellow colours, and let us mark these two important days together. 🇺🇦🇨🇦

So pleased to be part of   with so many friends.
