How would you rate VodaFest 2012?

VodaFest 2012

With more luck weather-wise this time, in whopping 38°C,  people were enjoying themselves with a glass of cold Czech beer in one hand and a delicious meal or dessert in the other. The streamlined program full of amazing performers on one stage, extended beer selection, covered beer garden area and outsourced parking management all contributed to the true festival atmosphere.
