Colours of Ostrava 2027 – Music, Art and Industry in One Place
From 21 to 24 July 2027, the Colours of Ostrava returns to the spectacular industrial complex of Dolní oblast Vítkovice in Ostrava, Czech Republic. One of Central Europe's most celebrated multi-genre music festivals, Colours has been bringing together international artists across rock, pop, indie, electronic, hip-hop and world music since 2002 — complemented by a rich programme of art, science, theatre and workshops.
A Unique Venue: National Cultural Monument
Since 2012 the festival has called the former Vítkovice Ironworks home — a national cultural monument where blast furnaces, mining towers and historic factory halls form an extraordinary backdrop that blends music and industrial heritage in a truly surprising way.
Highlights
- Four festival days featuring international headliners across all music genres
- Multiple stages set within the unique industrial landscape of Dolní Vítkovice
- Extensive side programme covering science, society, longevity and the arts
- Interactive workshops, theatre performances and art installations
- Camping available directly on the festival grounds
- Family-friendly: children under 140 cm height enter free of charge
Programme
Colours of Ostrava 2027 spans four days of live music across multiple stages. The festival is deliberately designed as a multi-genre experience; alongside the concerts, the Meltingpot programme invites leading Czech and international scientists, doctors, writers and creators to shed light on topics resonating with today's society, including longevity and health, cyberlife and the future of creativity. The full 2027 lineup and daily schedule will be announced progressively on the official website.
