We’re packing skis, snowboards, banjos, and mandolins and heading to Koska! Daily skiing will be alternated with night-time picking, and we’re already incredibly excited for the huge dose of bluegrass that awaits us. Also, by the way, it will be the first concert of Rooster Riders in Slovakia! 🇸🇰
Banjo Jamboree, the oldest bluegrass festival in Europe, is a very special event. The two-day event packed with great bands is the overview of the best the genre has to offer - from top performances to diverse jams lasting into the early hours of the morning to music workshops led by Ondra Kozák. Missing such an event would undoubtedly be a great shame - so don't forget to mark 13 - 14.6.2025 in your calendar! The Roosters are performing on Saturday and are looking forward to seeing you in the audience.
We will be playing at a festival organized by Marek Macák in honor of his father Honza, the founder of Banjo Jamboree, the oldest bluegrass festival in Europe. That's why we're heading to Kopidlno, to the multi-purpose pitch, for this very pleasant festival full of great bands. We hope the rain that accompanied last year's edition stays away this time...
Rooster Riders are heading to the South Bohemian capital of bluegrass—Velešín—to perform at the 15th annual festival held in the beautiful grounds of the Zlatá Růže winery, alongside seasoned bands. The pleasant atmosphere with great food and drinks is complemented each year by cool features like a large sunshade screen and a garden "shower" to keep you cool—so even in the hot August weather, there's nothing to worry about. There's no reason not to make the trip to Velešín then—we look forward to seeing you there!
We are going to the Královédvorsko region to the lovely village of Vlčkovice v Podkrknoší for the 34th year of the Malinkej festival, the memorial of Milan Vojtas. 34 years of persistently organizing the festival is, in our opinion, a difficult task - fortunately, we know that it is in the good hands of Béda Šturm and therefore there is nothing to worry about and both performers and listeners will be able to come to it for many years to come. Anyway, this year we will be one of the performing bands, so don't forget to come and support us!
