Dear friends of Meltingpot,


We are very sorry, but this July we will not meet in person in the Dolní Vítkovice area. The 19th year of the Colours of Ostrava festival, which we host every year, has had to be postponed to next year due to the coronavirus pandemic.


But we can't imagine a summer without great speakers from all over the world and especially without you, the spectators. That is why this year we are moving the Meltingpot forum from the halls and tents of the festival grounds to the online environment. Ideas without borders will come to you throughout the year through live broadcasts, interviews, debates, lectures or workshops. It is a huge motivation for our whole team that you are already participating in online discussions and expressing your support to us.

We are already very much looking forward to the Meltingpot 2021 forum, which will take place as part of the Colours of Ostrava festival on 14th-17th July, 2021. We are working on the program and preparing great novelties for you.


Purchased tickets for the festival remain valid for 2021 and their sale continues. If you keep your ticket, you support your festival. Thank you for that!


Take care of yourself and your loved ones, we’re in this together.
Your Meltingpot team
