PRAGUE GUIDE

International festival of contemporary dance production and motion theatre. The festival's mission is to inspire domestic artists and familiarise the general public with the art of contemporary dance. The history of the festival dates back to the summer of 1989, when the Prague Cultural Centre listed a few dance performances in the ‘Prague Summer Culture' festival.

The tradition of formal balls lives on in the 21st-century Czech Republic. And in contrast to many other EU countries, the balls held here are not restricted to the highest social levels, but in fact attract a broad spectrum of the public. Ladies in sweeping gowns and gentlemen in their best suits dancing till dawn can be your companions in the romantic ball of your dreams.

The Zlaty Strom Bar & Music Club is situated underneath the Zlaty Strom hotel, on the road that links the beautiful Charles Bridge to the Old Town Square. What can you expect from a club like Zlaty Strom? Great music, cocktails, dancers, pole dancers and several rooms for you to chill out, relax or, if you prefer, dance to 80’s music. It’s all up to you.

The Duplex Club & Café is one of the finest clubs in town. Should you stop by Prague, you don’t want to miss its wide offer of beverage and food. The club is situated in one of the highest building in Prague, in the center of Wenceslas Square. Duplex is open all night and day and adjusts to its customers’ needs

U Bucanyra houseboat is a quite nice place, especially thanks to its location in the centre of Prague, as well as its friendly atmosphere, good sound system and free entry. The club relies on DJs only, so no live bands. The main music styles there are house and Prague favourite drum’n’bass, and one has to admit it is nice to dance to kick drum on the boat, which actually floats and swings in the waves. You can hear other styles there, though; minimal, trance, techno and jungle.

This quite nice club with a ten-year history is located on the left side of the river between Smichov and Lesser Town district.

Le Mirage is a nice small place with a friendly atmosphere and good services located just a few minutes’ walk from metro IP Pavlova (or Radost FX club).

It is not the best venue in Prague, nor is the music cutting-edge, but if you're after a cheesy party night, this could be your choice.

If you are confused about which club to visit during your short break for a good party time - Karlovy Lazne is the best bet. Karlovy Lazne is a mega disco club right beside the Charles Bridge, next to the Club Lavka, situated in a historical bathhouse building originating from the 15th century.

Palac Akropolis is a multifunctional building containing a music club, a theatre, an information centre (where you can access the internet free of charge), a radio headquarters and a restaurant. Not exactly centrally located but not far from the centre either, it lies between Zizkov and Vinohrady districts.

Roxy is a city centre music club with a unique atmosphere - similar to the big clubs in London, Berlin or Amsterdam. Established in 1992, Roxy belongs to the list of most popular clubs in Prague, located close to the Old Town Square.

Lavka club is situated right on the banks of the River Vltava, next to Charles Bridge and very near Karlovy Lazne club, with incredible views up to Prague Castle.
