Harmónia Wellness & Spa in Bešeňová will host one of the biggest sauna events of the year – PEELING CUP 2026.
The prestigious competition will take place for the 8th time on 28 March 2026 and will culminate with the NIGHT OF SAUNA RITUALS. In the first part, competitors will prepare and present their peels to the jury as well as to visitors of the sauna world. The second part will focus on live performance of peeling treatments in the Sunrise steam sauna.
The Peeling Cup is a unique wellness event in Slovakia, where participants compete to become the champion of peeling treatments in front of an international professional jury. The jury evaluates the appearance of the peels, their quality, ingredients, the professionalism of the treatments performed in the sauna and many other criteria.
Enjoy deep relaxation during sauna rituals and peels performed by international sauna masters and special guests who will create a unique show as part of every ritual. Visitors to the Harmónia Wellness & Spa sauna world will also have the opportunity to experience the peels first-hand during the competition.
