GETTING TO COLOURS

BY TRAIN 🚆

One of the most convenient ways to travel is by train. In addition to regular Czech Railways services, you can also take the Colours Express, departing on 15 July at 10:31 AM from Prague Main Railway Station. On board, you’ll enjoy a special live performance by the trio GUFRAU, who will also perform at the festival. 

BY PLANE ✈️

You can fly to Leoš Janáček Ostrava Airport, which offers regular connections from destinations including Warsaw, London, Málaga, and Barcelona/Girona. From the airport, you can easily reach the city centre by train or bus.

BY CAR 🚗

If possible, we recommend choosing another form of transport. The official festival car park is already sold out.

If you still plan to come by car, we recommend parking farther away from the festival grounds and continuing by public transport or on foot.

GETTING AROUND OSTRAVA

Timetables for the additional train and bus services can be found HERE.

PUBLIC TRANSPORT 🚋

The easiest way to get around during the festival is with the DPO Festival Ticket.

For CZK 250, you’ll enjoy unlimited travel on Ostrava Public Transport services from 13 to 19 July.

To reach the festival, we recommend getting off at the Dolní Vítkovice Hlubina stop. The underpass will be open from 14 July and will lead you directly to the festival’s Main Entrance. You can enter the festival grounds either through the Main Entrance on Vítkovická Street or the Ruská Entrance. At both entrances, you can exchange your festival ticket for a festival wristband.

BY BIKE 🚲

You can also get to the festival using a shared nextbike. This year again, you’ll get 15 minutes of free rides, making it easy to cycle all the way to the festival grounds.

Want to make the ride even more fun? Join the traditional Party Ride with a DJ! The group ride starts on Friday, 17 July at 5:00 PM from the Cargo Bike Daddy store in Ostrava city centre and, after an approximately five-kilometre route, arrives at the U Lávky Entrance.

End of the evening? Getting home is easy.

After the festival programme ends, you can get home conveniently by train, bus, or the official festival taxi.

Extra Night Trains 🚆

From 16 to 19 July, additional late-night train services will operate across the region. Czech Railways will run trains from Ostrava střed railway station at three different departure times.

VEZEME VÁS DOMŮ 🚌 

This year, Heimstaden once again provides the We’ll Get You Home bus service. Buses will depart every 30 minutes from the Lower Area of Dolní Vítkovice, taking you comfortably to destinations around Ostrava.

You can find the timetable here. Seats can be reserved in advance on the partner’s website. Proceeds from this service will also support the S námi domů project, which helps young people leaving children’s homes, halfway houses, or foster care transition to independent living.

TAXI 🚖

If you prefer individual transport, an official festival taxi fleet will be available throughout the festival at the Main Entrance on Místecká Street. The official transport partner of Colours of Ostrava is CarTec.
