The Culturea Festival is held annually under the guidance of students of the Faculty of Multimedia Communications of Tomas Bata University in Zlín.
The task of the Culturea festival is to introduce two completely different world cultures to the audience, which is why this year will also be marked by the motto Beauty of Contrasts. Visitors can look forward to inspiring discussions with a number of experienced travelers, like the globetrotter Radovan Hanko or the passionate hitch-hiker Slávek Král, who will tell them about their adventures. The highlight of the program on the first festival day will be a live concert of the Bojkovice-based band RAMUZ.
The festival will also offer a rich travel experience on Saturday, when several rooms of Zámek Zlín will open to those interested, in which, in addition to other exciting stories from Finland and Turkey, they will be inspired by stories about trips in vans but also workshops of oriental dances and Nordic hardening. People will also be able to try the traditional Turkish painting technique of Ebro.
