BACK TO THE SYMBOLIC FEST 2026
BACK TO THE SYMBOLIC is a two-day open-air metal festival held annually at a natural swimming area in Tři Dvory near Kolín. The 2026 edition is the landmark tenth anniversary (vol. 10) and will take place on 21–22 August 2026. The festival focuses on death metal, thrash metal, black metal, and doom metal with an emphasis on exclusivity – most performing bands are playing in the Czech Republic for the first time. Organisers strive each year to bring bands that have never played in Czechia before, including ensembles with over 30 years of history. Tickets are electronic and delivered by email; in previous editions, ticket numbers were strictly limited (e.g. 350 tickets in 2023). The swimming area allows a combination of metal music with bathing in nature. The festival's official website is symbolic.cz, where direct ticket sales also take place.
