City Celebrations - 11-13th June
This year we are celebrating the seventh year of the city celebration "Touch Pisek", which is traditionally held on the first weekend after the 8th of June. We will offer you three days full of cultural and social events. As in past years, Friday is the " Great day for kids". Palacke Orchards as well as the waterfront will once again play host to classic music concerts, brass bands, country, jazz, folk and rock into the late evening. A top attraction of this year's event will surely be the historic game called " Return of the Golem", which is full of music, light, smoke and pyrotechnic effects. On Saturday night you will be able to marvel at the fireworks -lights dancing over the sky, which this year will be accentuated and coloured by scenic music.
The CR Championships in majorette groups will form part of this year's celebrations.

This event, which is traditionally held in the Palacke Orchards, in the summer months in the Cultural Club Garden of the city of Pisek.
