Festivals|Classical

The Karel Ditters International Music Festival from Dittersdorf is a festival that has been held every year since 1993, mainly in the town of Javorník, partly in the town of Jeseník and its surroundings. During this time, it has become an integral part of the cultural autumn of the entire Jesenice region. It is also one of the most significant and significant projects implemented within the Olomouc Region, and its existence thus clearly proves that lively cultural activity does not escape even its northernmost region. Its annual implementation is provided by the Karel Ditters Association of Dittersdorf.
And so every autumn is traditionally carried in the spirit of Baroque sophistication, with which Karel Ditters is undoubtedly closely connected and whose work the entire festival is actually primarily dedicated to. The central idea of ​​the whole festival is an effort to present classical music at the highest professional level to all residents of our border region, as well as to professional audiences. However, Ditters' name is not just a kind of "moral-musical regional authority" in the name of the festival, on the contrary, every year of the festival the compositions of this author appear in the repertoire of many musical ensembles, which is also one of the festival's conditions. Another is the effort to open the festival stage to young and beginning performers, often the winners of the Prague Spring or other competitions. Last but not least, it is also an effort to invite, as, after all, in the name of the festival, musicians from abroad, or at least musical ensembles with the representation of foreign performers, to the festival days.

Festivals|Classical

The Antonín Dvořák Music Festival boasts a long tradition, during which its organizers managed to establish it among high-level cultural events and, in the venues, of paramount importance. It was established in 1969 on the initiative of the Antonín Dvořák Society (then chaired by Dr. Karel Mikys) and the District Cultural Center in Příbram, to which the Ministry of Culture promised financial support at the time. And the support was by no means small, because at that time it made it possible to invite such orchestras as the Czech Philharmonic, the FOK Symphony Orchestra of the Capital City of Prague, the PKO, the Slovak Philharmonic or the Film Symphony Orchestra. During these years, however, the festival also included a number of excellent ensembles from abroad. The people of Příbram were also able to witness top performances such as the Leningrad Philharmonic and the Moscow State Philharmonic, and last but not least, the Warsaw State Philharmonic or the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra London with conductors Mark Emler, Charles Groves, Arvid Jansons and Dimitri Kitajen. After 1989, however, similarly as in the whole cultural sphere, significant organizational changes took place here. Since 1990, the organization Příbram Theater has taken over its organization, where (perhaps) due to the lack of financial resources, the festival stuck to three to five concerts, mostly only chamber music.

Let It Roll stepped into the scene in the year of 2003 as a small club event. Fast forward to the present and you have the world's largest drum & bass festival.

Let It Roll stepped into the Czech music scene in the year of 2003 as a series of club events. Through the clubs it grew into larger winter happenings in factory spaces and quickly became one of the most favorite and visited events in Czech Republic. In 2008 the promoters decided to organize the first summer open air festival. More than 3000 visitors arrived to the first edition of Let It Roll Open Air in the Oplatil sand quarry close to the city of Pardubice. Everyone was thrilled by the amazing atmosphere that the festival offered. The next year visitor turnout doubled to more than 6000.


Let It Roll festival was just different from the very beginning. The unique original stage design, that changes every year, underlies the festival atmosphere and the whole-around experience to the maximum. After a few years - in 2010 - "Let It Roll" started to be heard about abroad and gained very noticable amount of international visitors and feedback as well. The phenomen started to spread and in 2011 and 2012 the 10 000 visitor bar was broken.

It was clear that things were getting serious when in 2013 and 2014 the bar was raised to more than 15 000 visitors daily from all around the globe and when the festival was awarded 'BEST FESTIVAL' by the prestigious Drum&BassArena Awards, 'BEST OVERSEAS PROMOTER / EVENT' by The National Drum & Bass Awards as well as continually winning the Czech Drum & Bass awards from their very beginning till the present.

Big changes came in 2015. The festival moved from its venue in Benešov to its new home in the former Russian air base Milovice. Everything had to be built from scratch but the festival's site options became nearly limitless. The amount of visitors hit more than 20 000 followed by the festival winning the "BEST FESTIVAL" award in Drum&BassArena Awards once again.

Let It Roll's status as the world’s biggest Drum & Bass festival is strengthened year upon year, with 2017 seeing its highest ever attendance with over 25,000 D&B heads. Awarded by the prestigious Drum&BassArena Awards as "Best Festival" again among with other awards from past years, National D&B Awards "Best Promoter" and years of winning local - Czech awards. In 2017, the festival also celebrated its 10th anniversary of an open air and things are moving forward. Let It Roll becomes bigger than ever with the new decade. 9 stages and more than 300 of drum & bass artists will be crammed into 3 days and nights of super charged raving, all set off by the most impressive stage designs, light displays and firework shows available.
