Cultural and creative industries (CCI) represent an important sector that combines economic, social and cultural contribution to the development of regions. As part of this article, a questionnaire survey was conducted among municipalities with more than 2,500 inhabitants in the South Bohemian Region, the aim of which was to determine the state and potential of cultural activities and facilities in these municipalities. The questionnaires focused on the availability of cultural events, the availability of cultural facilities, the involvement of different target groups, cross-border cooperation and further education opportunities. The results showed that most municipalities are trying to support cultural life but are struggling with a lack of funds and qualified personnel. Further education of cultural workers is perceived by the municipalities as a key factor for increasing the quality of the services provided. The study emphasizes the need for greater support of cultural infrastructure from regional and state institutions. The results provide important data for planning the development of the cultural and creative sector in the region. The questionnaire survey is thus a valuable source of information for future strategic decisions in the field of culture and creativity.

Klíčová slova: Cultural and creative industry, South Bohemia region, cultural activities, cultural and creative background.
