The 15th anniversary edition will offer visitors the work of 45 glass artists and designers from 15 countries and 5 continents, a tour of glassworks, galleries and sample rooms, and those interested will be able to try their hand at working with glass.
There will be, for example, sculptor, painter and performer Jaroslav Róna and one of the best glass artists in the world Martin Janecký, artist and frontman of the band Tata Bojs Milan Cais, jazz trumpeter, composer and painter Laco Deczi or Kateřina Handlová, who designed the crystal medals for this year's World Cup;
Visitors will also be able to travel outside Nový Bor on a special bus service or by excursion train with a route around Nový Bor.
The symposium's focus is on glassmaking in the organizing companies and institutions, and the New Bor glass festival also attracts the public with a varied accompanying program at the Peace Square. For example, Portless with singer Kryštof Michal, Václav Noid Bárta, Miroslav Kemel and his band will play here, and children will enjoy a concert by Bombarďák. The end of the programme will belong to a light drone show.
Detailed program on the organizer's website.



For the first time in three years, dozens of artists and designers from all over the world will again present themselves to the public, with local glass companies and schools providing their workshops and top craftsmen.
