Unlike the first edition when Komedia Fest held its most activities in the zone of Old Bazaar (Çarshia e Vjetër), this year there was a sense of raising the awareness for other buildings of cultural heritage, with focusing its activities in the Ethnographic Museum of Gjakova. During these days of various performance activities, artists and festival guests together with many art lovers had a chance to interact and discuss many different issues related to the genre of comedy, in a very friendly and pleasant atmosphere. The innovation to this edition was also the animated movies program of the comedy genre, screened on the museum wall surface, making it a true attraction for all the interested and random citizens that had a chance to experience it all free of charge.
