The paper deals with the motives of volunteers, which led them to actively participate in the organization of the Olympic festivals in 2021 and 2022 in Brno and Prague. Olympic festivals are a project of the Czech Olympic Committee and take place during the Olympic Games. This project was created under the name „Olympic Park” in 2014 and takes place in different places every two years, during the Summer or Winter Games. In 2021, it was held in Prague and Brno; in 2022, in Brno. The results are processed on the basis of answers from 131 volunteers’ questionnaires, where, among other things, they evaluated their motives for participation according to the Olympic Volunteer Motivation Scale (OVMS). In the questionnaire, they also answered the question, „What was your greatest experience or impression that you took away from the Olympic Festival as a volunteer?” This information is very important for the organizer, and he should know it. First of all, it is an important feedback on the implemented action. Secondly, for long-term successful cooperation with volunteers, and thirdly, for the correct setting of the offer to participate in other events. In this way, he can not only reach as many volunteers as possible to participate but also prepare the best conditions for them so that their participation is an experience for them. This will positively affect their interest in repeated participation in the Olympic Festivals project and, from a broader perspective, in regular volunteering as a regular part of a quality life. Positive experiences are one of the important benefits of volunteer work. The definition of volunteering according to Sozanská and Tošner (2006) is: „Public volunteering is a conscious, freely chosen activity for the benefit of others, which citizens provide free of charge. The volunteer consciously gives a part of his time, energy, and abilities to the benefit of the activity, which is limited in terms of time and content. Volunteering can be professionally organized without losing its spontaneity. It is a regular and reliable source of help for a citizen or an organization that cooperates with volunteers and, at the same time, a source of new experiences and opportunities for the personal growth of volunteers.” Thanks to the long-term cooperation with volunteers in the organization of the Olympic Festivals, the results of the mentioned questionnaire are already being applied during the recruitment for the Olympic Festival 2024, which will take place on Lake Most during the Summer Olympic Games in Paris in July and August 2024.
