Kontrasty (), or Contrasts, is an international festival of contemporary music held in Lviv, Ukraine, annually since 1995. The festival's concept is aimed at presenting "contemporary Ukrainian music in the context of World Music", and "revealing the diversity of modern forms, styles, genres, and interpretations." The festival usually takes place in September and October. Along with such festivals as "Two Days and Two Nights of New Music," "Kyiv Music Fest" and others, "Contrasts" is one of the leading festivals of modern classical music in Ukraine.
At the beginning of the festival's existence, its concept focused on avant-garde and experimental music (the model for the organizers was "Warsaw Autumn,") but over time the concept became less radical. In recent years, the experimental vector of the festival has been returning.
