What is Rock for People?
During the past 12 years Rock for People has become one of the biggest and most popular outdoor music festivals in the Czech Republic. Artists form all around the world meet on three or four stages in three days of great fun and festival atmosphere.


The past 12 years Rock for People took place in a small town of Cesky Brod. But what used to be a small regional festival has turned into one of the most prestigious and attractive events of the year. As the original festival site was out of its capacity, this year we´ve decided to move the festival into a larger venue. The former military airfield by Hradec Kralove offers great comfort and festival atmosphere for the fans, same as for the preforming artists.

A substantial amount of tickets is often sold even before the festival program is published! Rock for People has been recognized annually in various magazines and readers´ polls as the best event of the year, receiving in 1998 certification from the Czech Republic Ministry of Culture and in 2000 the Czech Grammy Award for Best Event of the Year.

Past Rock for People festivals have featured such international acts as Manu Chao (FR), Cypress Hill (US), Garbage (US), New York Ska Jazz Ensemble (USA), Die Toten Hosen (D), The Levellers (GB), Junkie XL (NL), Therapy? (IRL), Mike Patton (US), Chumbawamba (GB), Ska-P (E), Apocalyptica (FI), New Model Army (GB), Asian Dub Foundation (GB), Bloodhound Gang (US), Biohazard (US), Agnostic Front (US), Madball (USA), Gocoo (JAP), Dead Kennedys (US), Guano Apes (D), Die Happy (D), Transglobal Underground (GB), and others.
