Grounded is a festival of electronic music, critical thinking and activism, that addresses current social issues by combining the seemingly incompatible: deinstitutionalised theoretical debates, everyday social activism and progressive electronic club culture. Through debates, projections, presentations, music performances and hangouts – the baselines of which are equality irrespective of personal circumstances, solidarity with the weak and the autonomy to govern your own fate – the participants seek relevant, eligible and responsible answers to the contemporary challenges.
 
The first edition of the festival was held in 2015 with the theme Autonomy of migration. Theme in 2018 was Intimacy in the age of artificial intelligence, in 2019 Automation and Power, in 2020, in 2021 The State and last year Responsibility. 

2023 theme is Peace.

Ustanova “ The Institution” is a social structure that sets rules for the behavior of a larger group of people. With jurisdictions on the dancefloor it tries to intercede the public space and continue to raise it into a community.

Ustanova convenes regular assemblies and events that strengthen the community and collective consciousness. The collective and its community are committed to finding parallels of club and society and their intersections. The work of the collective is not limited to the frames of the dance floor, but exceeds it and attempts to apply its basic beliefs to the wider society.
