Open Air Music Festival Trutnov to end on Sunday

The Czech Republic’s oldest open air music festival in the east Bohemian town of Trutnov is set to end late on Sunday night. Since Thursday, the festival has featured over a hundred bands and performers from the Czech Republic and abroad. Former Czech president Václav Havel, who is a regular visitor to the festival, appeared briefly on stage on Saturday when he was asked by one of the bands to accompany them on the drums. The Trutnov Open Air Music Festival was first held in 1987, which makes it the oldest festival of its kind in the country.
