The intercultural festival RefuFest focuses on strengthening mutual understanding and coexistence of diverse cultures in line with the idea of an open society. The festival provides a space for discussion and awareness on issues of migration, integration, armed conflicts, and current events both globally and in the Czech Republic.
RefuFest will be full of music, dance, great food, and creative workshops.
During the day, 16 migrant communities will present themselves, each with an all-day program at their stalls consisting of workshops, games, and tastings of traditional dishes.
In the afternoon and into the early evening, there will be a program for children and youth. We will also give space to non-profit organizations working with migrants to introduce their activities to the public through interactive workshops.
On the main outdoor stage, there will be performances by musical bands and artists, fashion shows featuring traditional costumes, and demonstrations of traditional dances.
The event will take place at several locations of the Kampus Hybernská - in the courtyards, in E.0 and E.1 halls as well as in the Cirkulární dílna.
