What your ticket includes
According to the Hrady CZ website (Admission page, version from May 2026), the Saturday festival wristband also served as a ticket for a castle tour, which was free for festival visitors. The website does not say which tour or route this is for each individual castle. The weekend pass is valid for Friday and Saturday; the website does not explicitly state whether the Saturday part of the pass gives the same entitlement.
