Trutnov Open Air Music Festival underway

The Trutnov Open Air Music Festival originally known as “the Woodstock of the East" is well into its third day, attended among others by the former Czech president Václav Havel who has been a big fan ever since the festival was established in 1987. The highlight of Saturday’s concert will be the appearance of the US band Soulfly. This year the open-air concert is symbolically devoted to the victims of the 1989 Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968.
