Dear film fans,
The star-studded silver screen is today an integral part of the Karlovy Vary Region’s identity. For the past nearly six decades the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival has not only brought these stars to our region – it has also given us the chance to see them on the big screen and to admire their performances. And this year will be no different, as we come together to enjoy the remarkable 59th edition of this cinematic celebration.
As a longtime partner of the festival, the Karlovy Vary Region uses this opportunity to present itself to festivalgoers. So don’t hesitate to visit our venue at the festival, which promises to have something for adults and children alike.
Naturally, it would bring me great joy if – between attending film screenings, watching the stars, or checking out concerts and other amazing activities – you will find the time to visit some of our region’s beautiful places outside of Karlovy Vary, for the Karlovy Vary Region has many such places to choose from. Do you like to relax, walk through nature, play golf, go rafting or canoeing on the Ohře River, go for a bike ride, visit historical monuments, or climb a lookout tower? Then rest assured that the Karlovy Vary Region is the right place for you.
May you enjoy your stay in our region as you soak in the inimitable atmosphere of the film festival. And perhaps you will visit us again to explore our region outside of the film festival. Because the Karlovy Vary Region is magical all year round. Don’t believe me? Come for yourself and find out.
I look forward to seeing you at the 59th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.
