​

The BLIK BLIK Festival of Light and Art in Public Space returns for the eleventh time in 2026 and will light up Pilsen for the first time for three nights – from March 19 to 21. This year's edition will present 17 light installations by Czech and foreign artists, 6 of which are interior, two main epicenters and a strong theme of SYMBIOSIS – the relationship between man, city and nature.

​

This year's festival route will connect the area between Roudná and DEPO2015. A prominent location of the program will be the Republic Square, which will be transformed into a light sculpture park, and the courtyard of the Pilsen City Hall, which will offer an immersive projection experience. The second dominant location of the festival will be DEPO2015, where visitors can experience the monumental interactive installation FLUX in the Bus Hall, a videomapping school on the facade and a special videomapping created specifically for the Pilsen ZOO, which celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2026. This year, the festival is taking place under the auspices of the Mayor of Pilsen, Mr. Roman Zarzycký.
