About

Beats for Love Festival 2026 is poised to ignite the industrial heart of Ostrava from July 1–4, transforming the historic Dolní Vítkovice grounds—once a coal mine and ironworks—into Central Europe’s largest electronic dance music festival spectacle. Recognized as the region’s most dynamic and celebrated festival, Beats for Love fuses pulsating beats with cutting-edge visuals and immersive art, delivering an experience that transcends music and ignites the senses.

Last year’s edition drew a record-breaking 164,000 visitors, who were captivated by performances from global icons like Armin van Buuren, Axwell, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Timmy Trumpet, Richie Hawtin, Sub Focus, MK, and Claptone across 18 uniquely thematic stages. From industrial-heavy zones to cosmic “Space Love” areas and the interconnected “Pulse” corridor, each stage offered a distinct audio-visual journey.

What truly sets Beats for Love apart is its bold production design. The festival site is a visual marvel, divided into immersive zones—Industrial, Space, and Love—connected by a creatively lit Pulse area, while installations like a towering industrial dragon and stunning LED displays elevate each moment into a visceral spectacle. Creativity extends beyond the music, with the “Talking Beats” forum nestled within a repurposed control room, hosting cultural dialogues like “How Festivals Breathe Life into Ostrava,” and the festival’s Beats for Charity initiative mobilizing fans to support impactful community causes.

Beats for Love is a celebration of scale and inclusivity. With over 550 artists, city-spanning production, and expansive programming, the festival draws seasoned ravers and curious newcomers alike into a communal heartbeat of dance, discovery, and artistic expression. Beats for Love 2026 promises to be more than just a festival—it’s a vibrant convergence of sound, spectacle, and shared humanity.
