The O2 Sazava Fest started as a one-day event in 2001 for 1800 people, with only one stage and a much more genuine cast, from a festival for 1800. Today the Sazava Fest has become a respectable festival for more than 20,000, lasting for four days on six stages. The Festival has become a sought-after event, attracting bigger crowds and stars every year. For the promoters it has become a challenge, as they now have to take care of the second biggest festival in the Czech Republic. The Festival's dramaturgy focus definitely lies in the idea of a multicultural festival. The dominant role belongs to multi-genre music, produced by live groups. The festival is multicultural (music, theatre, film, author's readings, photo and art exhibitions etc) and covers multiple musical genres, including world music, rock, pop, reggae, ska, jazz, blues, dance and hip hop.

The additional programme consists mainly of the ‘Adrenalin zone' with the chance to spend time climbing, getting an airbrush tattoo, or many other dangerous things.
