Yes. For natural persons, this is valid according to Article 15(1) of Directive 586\/1992 Coll. on income taxation as currently applicable; for legal entities, Article 20(8) of the same directive applies.<\/p>\n

According to Article 15, it\u2019s possible to deduct a donation that is a minimum of CZK 1000 or 2% of the tax base from a natural person\u2019s tax base. It\u2019s possible to deduct a maximum of 15% of the tax base using this method (valid as of January 2015).<\/p>\n

According to Article 20, it\u2019s possible to deduct a donation with a minimum amount of CZK 2000 that is no more than 10% of the tax base from the tax base of a legal entity (valid as of January 2015).<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

VIP guests are identified on their entry ticket by means of a special QR code. An hour before the performance and during intermission, they can use the services of the VIP Center, where light refreshments and restrooms are available. In VIP areas, patrons also have the unique opportunity of meeting honored festival guests. Parking for one vehicle next to the castle grounds is also included in the VIP QR code. The usual price for VIP service is a fee of CZK 800 per ticket; we offer VIP service to patrons for free according to the amount of their donation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

After certain performances, there will be a social gathering \u2013 a reception. These receptions are held in the name of a sponsor, specifically the sponsor of the respective performance. To enter the area where this social gathering is being held, it\u2019s necessary to show an invitation or other QR code on a ticket. Receptions can be seen as an upgrade to VIP tickets; together with VIP service, they usually cost a fee of CZK 2500 on top of the basic ticket price. We offer reception invitations to patrons for free according to the price of their donation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

General advance sales for tickets to Smetana\u2019s Litomy\u0161l always begin on the first Wednesday in March.

Write the name and date of the performance in your order as well as the number of tickets requested and the selected price category. Please respect the quantity limits for priority purchase.

Ticket pickup is decided on an individual basis. They can be sent electronically, picked up in person at the Smetana\u2019s Litomy\u0161l advance sales office, or we can send them by mail. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Printed materials from the festival are sent foremost by email, often even before they exist materially. We later send the actual printed materials by mail upon request.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
