THE FIRST SLOVAK 🇸🇰–GEORGIAN 🇬🇪 TOURISM FORUM IN TBILISI
On Tuesday, April 2️⃣1️⃣, 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣6️⃣, the first-ever Slovak–Georgian Tourism Forum took place in Tbilisi. The event was organized by the Embassy of the Slovak Republic in Tbilisi, Slovakia Travel, and the ტურიზმის ეროვნული ადმინისტრაცია • Georgian National Tourism Administration.
📍The main objective of the forum was to present Slovakia as an attractive destination for Georgian visitors. An important role in this regard is played by the new direct flight ✈️ connection between Bratislava and Kutaisi, which significantly facilitates travel between our countries and opens up new opportunities for tourism exchange.
📍The forum brought together tourism stakeholders from both countries and created a platform for practical B2B discussions. Participants explored concrete opportunities for cooperation, established new contacts, and exchanged experience in the field of tourism.
🗣️“Relations between Slovaks and Georgians have traditionally been very good, and thanks to the new direct flight connection, our countries are, in a sense, closer again. We are pleased by the growing number of Slovak tourists visiting Georgia, but at the same time, we aim to introduce Slovakia more to Georgian travellers. Slovakia is a beautiful country offering a wide range of experiences – from cities and spa resorts, through castles and UNESCO heritage sites, to unique nature. I believe that the forum will contribute to an increase in the number of visitors from Georgia, strengthen cooperation, and foster new partnerships between Slovakia and Georgia in the field of tourism, as well as support the overall development of bilateral relations,” said the Ambassador of the Slovak Republic to Georgia, Matúš Bušovský.
🤝The programme also included working meetings in Kutaisi with the Imereti Destination Management Organisation, which confirmed the strong potential for developing regional cooperation with this western Georgian region.

On April 3, 2026, the David Kakabadze Fine Arts Gallery in Kutaisi hosted the opening of an exhibition by prominent Slovak painter and graphic artist Karol Felix, entitled “Lighthouse.” The exhibition presented the artist’s digital and graphic works.

The exhibition was organized by the Honorary Consulate of the Slovak Republic 🇸🇰 in Kutaisi 🇬🇪 in cooperation with the Embassy of the Slovak Republic in Tbilisi, with the support of Kutaisi City Hall.

The opening was attended by the Director of the gallery, Ms. Eliso Chogovadze; the Honorary Consul of the Slovak Republic for in Kutaisi Mr. Mikheil Chkhikvadze, as well as representatives of local government and educational institutions.

The aim of organising of the exhibition was to present support modern Slovak art to audiences in the regions of Georgia and thereby to strengthen cultural ties and promote mutual understanding between Slovakia and Georgia. Visitors from Kutaisi and the Imereti region were able to admire Karol Felix’s works until April 14.
