This international music festival takes place over the course of four weeks during July and August in the historic jewel of South Bohemia – in Český Krumlov. The venues include interesting places in the proximity and in particular the unique areas of the Castle and Château of Český Krumlov.
The festival offers 4 weeks of music ranging from the 15th till the 21st century. You will hear a variety of music genres: classical music, jazz, folk, musicals, opera, and crossover. The real gems of the festival’s events are experimental Baroque performances in the oldest Baroque theater in the world.
