Winter Útulek Fest 2026

The Winter Útulek Fest (zÚF) returns for its third edition, a two-day club mini-festival that rotates between cities and venues each year. On Friday, November 6, 2026, it arrives in Teplice at the HVJEZDA venue for the first time.

Five bands will take the stage. DIE UKRAINIENS from Dresden are coming to Teplice for the first time, bringing traditional Ukrainian and Balkan music in their signature "speed-folk-polka" style (accordion, saxophone and trumpet). VIBES is a seven-piece reggae/rock/funk/ska/punk band from Děčín, also featuring saxophone and trumpet. MANTRA is a five-piece modern pop-rap-metal band from Most, which performed at the 25th edition of Útulek Fest in June 2026 - making their Teplice debut. KPT. KRAB brings dadadisco from Útulek. VOKAP are young musicians from the Děčín music school with cover versions and original songs - also performing in Teplice for the first time.

As with the "classic" Útulek Fest, all proceeds go to food for overcrowded Ukrainian animal shelters. The Prague-based PSÍ ŽIVOT association will transport the donations, as they have done in the previous two editions.

Note: Winter Útulek Fest continues the next day, Saturday, November 7, 2026, at the BIOGRAFFS club in Děčín (see separate event).
