The Czech music scene made a strong mark at this year’s SHIP Festival in Šibenik, Croatia.
As part of the program, SoundCzech brought ten Czech delegates and hosted its very own networking event – a relaxed boat trip with live music, refreshments, and an open atmosphere that connected Czech and international professionals alike.

SHIP 2025 was buzzing with energy: 49 bands from 25 countries, 114 speakers from 33 nations, and over 650 music professionals from across the globe.
For four days, the historic heart of Šibenik turned into a vibrant hub of music, networking, and inspiration, with performances spread across six stages.

The Czech imprint was unmistakable — Bratři, twin brothers Jiří and Ondřej Veselý, delivered one of the festival’s most memorable live sets, blending analog synths, drums, and mesmerizing visuals into an electrifying performance that lit up the night.

The professional program also featured Márton Náray (SoundCzech), who opened a key discussion on how to strengthen the connection between the Central European music scene and the rest of the world.

SHIP 2025 once again proved that when music, people, and new ideas come together, great things happen.
For the Czech delegates, it was a valuable opportunity to present the Czech music scene, meet industry peers from across Europe, and build new bridges at one of the region’s most dynamic music events.
