Have your say: Brno’s participatory budget 2026

You work, study or raise your family here. Brno is your home, and your voice matters too. So don’t miss this chance to help shape the city you live in. Brno’s participatory budget, Dáme na vás, gives local residents a real say in improving their neighbourhoods and in how the city is run.

Brno has set aside 35 million CZK for projects proposed by residents. You can help decide which of the 88 final ideas get funded.

  • When to vote: from 1 November to 30 November 2026. Voting closes at 20:00 on the last day.
  • Who can vote: anyone aged 18 or over with permanent, temporary or long-term residence registered in Brno.
  • How your votes work: you get 5 positive votes (you can give up to 2 to a single project) and 2 negative votes (max 1 per project).

How expats can vote

The project is meant for people who actually live in Brno, so all voters need to verify their residence. Expats don’t have a Czech national ID card (občanský průkaz), so you’ll need to get verified to receive a voting token.

  • Get verified: contact the project coordinators by email or phone in advance to arrange it. You’ll need your residence permit card (doklad o povolení k pobytu).
  • Vote online: once you have your token, you can easily cast your votes on the Dáme na vás website.

 

Make your voice count and help make Brno an even better place to live! For full details and coordinator contacts, check the Dáme na vás voting guide.
