Rožnovské slavnosti is scheduled for July 1–5, 2027 in Rožnov pod Radhoštěm, in the Moravian Wallachia region of the Czech Republic. The National Open Air Museum has hosted and co-organised recent editions at its Rožnov complex, where traditional buildings give the performances unusually strong cultural context. CIOFF confirms the 2027 festival window; the museum has not yet released the 2027 day-by-day visitor programme.

Recent programmes are evidence of the festival’s museum-based character, not a promise that every 2027 performance will use the same stage. Wait for the official museum listing before choosing individual days.
A festival rooted in Moravian Wallachia
The setting matters as much as the stage. Rožnov’s open-air museum preserves wooden buildings and working traditions from the Wallachian region, so dance, instruments and dress are presented alongside an architectural landscape rather than inside a generic concert hall. Give yourself time to visit the museum in daylight instead of arriving only for an evening show.
Follow museum rules about restricted interiors and photography. Keep paths clear during processions and do not touch garments or instruments. July weather can turn quickly near the Beskid foothills; pack a light waterproof layer as well as sun protection.
Getting to Rožnov
Rožnov pod Radhoštěm is reached by regional rail through Valašské Meziříčí. Ostrava Airport is geographically convenient but has limited international coverage, so travellers may also compare Prague, Vienna or Kraków and then price the onward railway journey. Czech Rail publishes national connections; recheck the final timetable when 2027 tickets open.
The museum is close enough to the town centre for many visitors to walk, but confirm the route for your chosen entrance and mobility needs. A car is useful for Beskid side trips, not necessary for a museum-focused stay. If driving, use only signed parking and expect busy arrival periods around major performances.
Where to stay and trip shape
Central Rožnov is the best base for the museum, restaurants and the railway station. Book June 30–July 6 with free cancellation, then reduce the stay after the programme identifies the strongest public days. A second base in Ostrava or Olomouc adds city time but creates a long late-night return.
For step-free access, ask the museum which routes avoid steep or uneven historic surfaces, which performance areas have seating and whether an accessible drop-off point will operate. Heritage terrain can be challenging even when individual buildings are accessible.

Before you commit
Book the room before the museum ticket, but keep both flexible until the public programme appears. Recheck the museum entrance named on the ticket, the final train from Rožnov to Valašské Meziříčí and any bag restrictions. Families should verify which performances are seated and whether pushchairs are permitted in crowded heritage areas. If mountain weather is poor, keep a museum-only alternative rather than forcing a Radhošť side trip.
