The story

Rock Castle in Moravský Krumlov

Rock Castle launched around 2020 or 2021 as the youngest member of the Pragokoncert festival family alongside the long-established Masters of Rock, now running annually each summer since its pandemic-era debut. Staged in the grounds of a Renaissance chateau in Moravsky Krumlov near Brno, it books international rock and metal acts into a genuine castle park setting rather than a purpose-built festival ground.

Rock Castle is a genuinely young addition to the Czech festival calendar, launched around 2020 or 2021 by the Pragokoncert agency as the youngest member of a festival family that also includes the long-established Masters of Rock in Vizovice, with a founding date squarely in the pandemic era rather than decades earlier.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Being organised by the same Pragokoncert agency behind Masters of Rock gives Rock Castle established booking infrastructure and promotional reach unusual for a festival still in its first half-decade, helping explain its rapid growth into a significant South Moravian event

02

The mystery stays covered

Its genuine Renaissance chateau park setting, in a town founded around a thirteenth-century castle on the Rokytna river, gives it a physically distinctive backdrop compared with the airfields and industrial sites hosting many comparable Czech rock and metal festivals

03

The city starts moving

Continuing to run annually after a pandemic-era 2020 or 2021 launch shows consistent year-on-year growth rather than a one-off pandemic-adjacent event
