In the paper the spectroscopic properties of antimony-germanate glass co-doped with Yb3+/Ho3+ has been investigated. Fabricated Yb3+/Tm3+/Ho3+ co-doped glass is characterised by the emission of simultaneous multicolour upconversion: luminescence. Strong blue 1G43H6 (Tm3+), green 5F45I8 (Ho3+) and red 5F55I8 (Ho3+) upconversion emission bands have been measured under 976 nm excitation at room temperature. Influence of molar ratio of active ions and excitation power on the colour coordinates (CIE-1931) have been investigated.
