The way Czech families spend their free time has significantly changed in recent years. More and more parents are looking for activities that allow them to spend time together with their children outside the home, and there is a growing interest in events that can combine fun, movement, and meaningful programs.
One of the projects that long-term confirms this trend is the family festival Fesťáček. Over the past few years, it has become one of the most visited events of its kind in the Czech Republic. In 2025, it welcomed over 70,000 visitors across the country and this year it returns with an even larger nationwide tour.
In 2026, Fesťáček will travel to 11 cities across the Czech Republic, where it will welcome thousands of visitors at each stop. The festival will gradually visit cities such as Prague, Plzeň, Jihlava, České Budějovice, Hradec Králové, Zlín, Ostrava, Olomouc, Liberec, and Most.
The success of the festival is primarily due to the combination of entertainment and active involvement of children. The program is designed to appeal to both younger children and older visitors, while also ensuring that parents enjoy the entire day.
On the main stage, well-known children's personalities perform, including Karol and Kvído, Míša Růžičková, Kájuška, Michal Nesvadba, and the duo Štístko and Poupěnka. There is also great interest every year in meet & greet events, where children have the opportunity to meet their favorite performers in person.
The festival features dozens of attractions, including bouncy castles, carousels, a children's roller coaster, bumper cars, and other interactive zones. The program is complemented by competitions and activities for children of various age categories.
An important role is also played by the educational aspect of the event. Integrated rescue system components regularly participate in the festival, introducing children to their work through demonstrations of equipment and interactive stations. Children can view fire and police vehicles and learn something new in a fun way.
The festival also boasts a record for the number of children dancing together to a single choreography, which is among its most significant moments.
Fesťáček is not just a classic entertainment event, but represents a place where families spend time together, children experience joy, and memories are created that will be remembered for a long time.
