Beats for Love, the largest electronic dance music festival in Central Europe, returns to the unique industrial setting of Dolní Vítkovice in Ostrava from July 2 to July 5, 2025.
This four-day music marathon will become the epicenter of electronic music, featuring performances from top global DJs and artists.
About the Festival:
First held in 2013, the festival has built a strong reputation over the years and annually attracts tens of thousands of visitors not only from the Czech Republic but from all over the world. Each edition offers not only star-studded names from the electronic scene but also a rich accompanying program, an unforgettable atmosphere, and the unique environment of Ostrava’s Dolní Vítkovice, which gives the festival an unparalleled industrial character.
This Year:
This year’s edition will feature more than 400 artists across 13 stages, ensuring a wide variety of music genres – from house, techno, trance, and drum & bass to hardstyle and bass music. Headliners include legendary Dutch DJ and producer Armin van Buuren, British singer John Newman, Australian showman Timmy Trumpet, and Norwegian talent Ørjan Nilsen. The festival also focuses on underground artists and discovering new talents.
What’s New for 2025:
Beats for Love is introducing a revolutionary concept called Beats for Love Universe, which will completely transform the festival grounds. Organizers have announced the creation of three new themed zones – Love Sphere, Space Sphere, and Industrial Sphere, all connected by the main festival artery Pulse. Each zone will offer a unique design and atmosphere inspired by global festival trends.
Another major innovation is the Techno Dome by Proud, featuring a 360° stage where the DJ will perform in the center of the crowd. This groundbreaking setup will create a unique energy and connection with the music.
For the first time in history, Evropa 2 radio will broadcast live from the heart of the festival, offering fans exclusive interviews with DJs, contests, and special content.
The festival continues to offer cashless payments in collaboration with VISA, allowing for smooth and secure transactions throughout the venue.
The Beats for Charity initiative will once again enable festivalgoers to support individuals facing adversity. This year, the fundraiser is backed by ČEZ Group, which will contribute through its EPP Pomáhej pohybem app.
Among the additional activities is the third edition of the Talking Beats conference, featuring interesting speakers from the music and cultural industries.
The festival has also partnered with Kofola, which will introduce the Square of Love, where festival weddings and special matchmaking events will take place.
What to Expect?
Beats for Love is not just about music – the festival also emphasizes additional activities for visitors. The event includes various workshops, themed zones, chill-out areas, and a diverse selection of street food from around the world. It is also involved in charitable projects and supports environmental initiatives such as waste minimization and the use of recyclable materials.
This festival is not only a celebration of dance music but also a place where people with a passion for music, freedom, and unforgettable experiences come together. If you’re looking for a festival that combines top-tier electronic music, a unique location, and an atmosphere full of positive energy, Beats for Love 2025 is an event you shouldn’t miss.
