After last year’s success, we’re back with another joyful, sports-and-culture celebration of life in Zlatovce! This year’s Zlatovce Festivities will once again be filled with running, music, children’s laughter, friendly family competition, and great food.
We’ll gather in the familiar park next to the House of Culture, where we’ll create a space for sports, community, and fun for all generations.
💛 By joining our charity run, you’ll support Emka, a young girl from our neighborhood. You can learn more about her on the O.z. Emulík website.
The event is organized by OZ Veselé Zlatovce in cooperation with Trenčín 2026.

💬 Why shouldn’t you miss it?
Because Zlatovce knows how to live!
There’s nothing better than neighbors meeting neighbors, runners high-fiving children, a grandma sharing a moment with her granddaughter, or cheering fans supporting local heroes.
Zlatovce Festivities are more than just an event – they’re a celebration of our community, connection, and the joy of doing things together.
Take a look at last year’s Zlatovce Festivities here:
