THE DOLNÍ VÍTKOVICE SITE
The multi-genre festival Colours of Ostrava is renowned not only for its rich and diverse programme, but also for its unique atmosphere, shaped by the striking industrial backdrop of Dolní Vítkovice.
Once home to ironworks, coal mines, and steel mills, this former industrial complex is transformed each year into a vibrant cultural hub. Among towering blast furnaces and steel structures, concerts by world-class artists unfold alongside an inspiring range of accompanying events.
The contrast between raw industrial architecture and the pulse of live culture creates an experience like no other — truly one of a kind.
