Every good chef has their own recipe book. And now we are presenting ours—the new Strategy for Culture and Creative Industries, which follows up on the expiring document and sets the direction for the next ten years. We would like this "recipe" for the development of Brno's culture and creativity to be created together with you. That' s why we invite you to comment and add your own suggestions.
What will Brno's culture look like in the next ten years? What values and directions will determine its development? This is the main question of the new strategy, which we presented at the Brno Cultural Forum entitled Culture Tomorrow: A Decade for Brno Culture and Creativity on September 23, 2025, in the Tržnice Brno building. Because culture and creativity affect everyone - whether you are creators, members of audience, or supporters - our involvement is key.
The strategy helps to clearly define what the city wants to support and develop in the field of culture and creativity in the long term. It allows planning projects that go beyond one electoral term and creates conditions for stable and sustainable development. Thanks to it, Brno can strengthen its position as an open, inspiring, and self-confident cultural city- not only within the Czech Republic, but also internationally.
We have prepared the new document to be accessible and understandable for everyone. It is based on the values that we consider to be key: diversity, sustainability, accessibility, transparency, participation and support for development. Our vision is Brno as a culturally rich, diverse and dynamic city, which at the same time strengthens local identity and belonging.
Now it's your turn. From the beginning of October until the end of November, you can comment on the draft strategy and contribute your perspective to the shape of culture and creative industries in Brno.
Every suggestion counts - yours can influence the direction the city takes.
You can send your comments using this form: STRATEGY / ACTION PLAN
The Strategy has two parts:
1) The main strategic document with a vision, goals and measures for the next ten years.
2) Action plans with a two-year validity - there will be five in total and will allow for a flexible response to current events and developments.
You can comment on both documents – both the long-term Strategy and the first Action plan for 2026–2027, which contains specific activities and steps. We will review and evaluate all your suggestions – no later than December. The documents will then be submitted to the Brno city leadership for discussion so that they can be approved and put into practice early next year.
In some parts of the texts, you will find links to background reports that we are currently finalizing and will publish by the end of the year. Therefore, the designation "to be completed” should not be taken as a deficiency, but as information about materials that will be added soon. Thank you for your understanding.
Get involved and become part of shaping the future of Brno culture!
