Crystal Valley Week festival in Liberec

Overview

The fifth edition of Crystal Valley Week is being held in Liberec, Czech Republic, from August 24 to 29, 2026. Operating under the UNESCO motto ‘Connecting Cultures’, the festival serves as a major showcase for glass, jewelry, and costume jewelry, featuring over 100 artists and designers across 36 locations.

A central focus of the event is the cultural link between Czech glass production and the Panará indigenous people of the Brazilian Amazon. The Panará are participating in the festival to demonstrate traditional jewelry-making techniques that utilize Czech glass beads, which the tribe has valued for generations. Their involvement includes demonstrations, appearances at Dr. E. Beneš square, and participation in multimedia fashion shows.
