The Best Border Breaker Artist, in other words the most active Czech music artist abroad, this year is singer Aiko! Not many people are working on their international career like Aiko, and it's not just about her participation in Eurovision. The singer did not accept the award in person because she is in the middle of a European tour for her latest album Aikonic. Congratulations! The category was handled by SoundCzech, a music agency that supports Czech artists travelling abroad.
"Congratulations to all the award winners this year. It should also be mentioned that in our opinion, all organizers of concerts, festivals, clubs and other music events deserve recognition. For organizing successful and well-prepared events in the current difficult situation and bringing joy and new impulses to music fans and audiences." – Prague Music Week Director Marek Vohralík
