About the Event
The Czech Death Fest festival was established in 2009 as a purely domestic music festival for Czech hard rock bands. The 2026 edition will be the seventeenth edition.**
The festival is a counterbalance to big foreign and Czech festivals, which invite mainly foreign performers to their events. Therefore, we have created a platform for Czech, Slovak, Polish and other artists not only from neighbouring countries, standing outside the mainstream of musical entertainment.
Over the years, we have also included many foreign bands, which are interesting in their conception of hard rock and metal music and represent new directions of development. The line-up each year includes several famous names of world metal, which always form the backbone and foundation of the festival.
