The festival
Rock For Church (ill) belongs this year again to one the most interesting festivals in Czech Republic. It started almost 11 years ago as a small festival with the intention to financially support the baroque church of St. Jacob. On the same time the festival supported local bands and artists. With the time the festival got more and more professional and the artists more and more international, so that this year Rock For Church (ill) is a pearl in the Czech festival scene. More than 5000 people are expected to rock over the last weekend in August in the small town
Vroutek.

The various line-up holds something for everybody, from Rock over Pop, to Electro and Reggae. The international headliners this year are
Stereo MCs (GB),
Transglobal Underground (GB),
Max Romeo (JAM) and
Doreen Shaffer (JAM). But that’s not all. There will be many great Czech bands and international and national deejays.
