On January 1, besides the official projection mapping, the people of Prague could also watch smaller firework shows, which were crowdfunded by the Ohnstroj pro Prahu (Fireworks for Prague) group and organized by Prague 2.
Prague is projecting a deficit of CZK 12 to 15 billion by year’s end due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
New Year’s Day is a national holiday in the Czech Republic and much more than just a celebration of the New Year. In fact, on the 1st of January 1993, the Czech Republic became an independent country after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia.
