Although DiCaprio has not yet arrived in Prague, he confirmed at a recent panel during the SBIFF festival that he will be joining the shoot in two weeks.

Prague will welcome a major return this summer as British pop-rock group Duran Duran takes the stage at O2 Arena on June 24, 2026. The concert marks the band’s first Czech appearance in 14 years. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022, the band has sold more than 100 million records worldwide and remains one of the defining acts of modern pop and rock. Known for combining strong visuals with melodic songwriting, they have maintained an active touring and recording career for over four decades.

New in Vinohrady: Bernard Brewery Launches Modern Beer-Gastro Concept

A new beer-focused gastro concept has arrived in Prague, where the family brewery Bernard has opened its first Bernard Brewhouse venue. The pilot location operates in Vinohrady, introducing what the brewery describes as an urban format combining its beers with contemporary dining and design. Unlike a traditional pub, the space is presented as a broader hospitality concept. Beer, food, interior design and visual presentation are meant to work together rather than separately. Custom glassware, tailored food pairings and the overall layout are intended to make the visit feel structured around experience, not just consumption. The kitchen plays a central role. The menu is built to match specific beer profiles, with ingredients selected to highlight flavor rather than dominate it. The brewery says the goal is balance between Czech beer tradition and current dining expectations. Technology also forms part of the project. One feature allows images or patterns to be printed directly onto beer foam using specialized equipment. Additional interactive elements are expected as the concept develops. According to franchise manager Aleš Pavlík, the intention is to create a place where guests feel comfortable staying longer, not simply stopping for a quick drink. He says attention to detail — from serving...

Prague Short on Young Blood Donors as Hospitals Raise Alarm

Hospitals across Prague say the number of young voluntary blood donors is falling, leaving transfusion services under strain even as overall demand for blood products remains steady. Medical staff warn that without a new generation stepping forward, maintaining stable supplies could become harder in the coming years. At General University Hospital in Prague, the transfusion department estimates it would need roughly six thousand additional regular donors to keep reserves comfortable. Department head Daniela Dušková said the Czech Republic overall may be short by as many as 80,000 to 100,000 unpaid donors. She noted that hundreds leave donor registries each year, most often because of age, health concerns, or relocation. Younger replacements are not arriving in sufficient numbers. A comparable trend is reported at Thomayer University Hospital, where officials describe the donor list as gradually aging. According to spokesman Petr Sulek, people born after 2000 represent a smaller demographic group and cannot fully replace older donors stepping back from regular donation. The hospital also provides blood derivatives beyond its own wards, including supplies for IKEM, which increases pressure on available stocks. Cooperation with hospitals outside Prague has become necessary to keep supplies stable. Some healthcare professionals believe the visibility of paid...

Travel Beyond the City of Time with Artist Sahej Rahal

Just days before the opening of the exhibition, the usually quiet Galerie Rudolfinum is suddenly full of energy. Staff gather for a preview tour of Beyond the City of Time, led by the artist himself, Sahej Rahal. I was fortunate to join the walkthrough, which suggests Prague’s art audience is about to encounter a striking blend of digital mythology and speculative storytelling. The Mumbai-based artist explains how his three-legged sculptures, AI-driven simulations and pigment paintings combine Indian folklore, video-game logic and science fiction to question how we perceive time and reality. For his Prague debut, Rahal has turned the gallery into a collaborative game environment, inviting visitors to shape evolving myths alongside unpredictable, creature-like forms that react to sound, movement and touch. Asked about his name, Rahal said it carries personal symbolism. “Sahej comes from the idea of the path of least resistance — my aunt chose it — while Rahal means traveller,” he explained. Originally trained as a fine-art painter at Mumbai’s Rachana Sansad, Rahal first considered engineering and has a background in programming. He eventually merged those interests. “Art school helped me improve my drawing, but I realised I could combine that with programming. Ultimately, I’m interested in...

New Foodora Index Reveals Where a Pizza Costs the Most in Czechia

Pizza prices across the Czech Republic rose by about 11.5 percent year on year, according to new data from Foodora. Despite the increase, the country remains among the cheapest markets in Europe where the delivery platform operates. The company’s Pizza Index, modeled loosely on global purchasing-power comparisons used in fast-food pricing, tracks average pizza costs in cities with the highest order volumes. The figures show clear regional differences inside the country. The lowest average price last year was recorded in Liberec at around 226 CZK. It was followed by České Budějovice with 233 CZK, Plzeň at 245 CZK, and Brno at roughly 251 CZK. The highest average price remained in Prague, where customers paid about 260 CZK per pizza. Across all countries covered by the index, prices were lower only in Hungary. The cheapest city overall was Szeged with an average price equivalent to about 207 CZK. At the opposite end stood Lillestrøm in Norway, where the converted price reached roughly 465 CZK. Higher ingredient costs, especially wheat, tomatoes and cheese, together with energy and operating expenses, have pushed prices up. Some major cities nevertheless recorded small declines, which the dataset links to stronger competition and more efficient production. Ordering...

American Student Reported Missing in Prague; Search Underway

Police in the Czech capital are searching for a young American student who vanished shortly before a planned trip back to the United States. Investigators say she never boarded the flight she intended to take from London and has not contacted relatives or friends since. According to Prague Police, the woman — identified as Angelina — was last seen on February 10 in the Prague 10 district. Her phone has been unreachable ever since, and officers have found no record of her leaving the Czech Republic by air. She had been studying at a university in the country. The last confirmed communication was with her former boyfriend, who told investigators she planned to fly to the United States that day. “She has never cut contact with family or friends for this long,” police spokesman Jan Rybanský said, adding that relatives are worried about her safety. Police describe her as about 170 centimeters tall, with medium-length black hair and brown eyes. She may have been wearing a green bomber jacket, a dark striped sweater and black trousers when she disappeared. Authorities are asking anyone with information to contact police immediately.

Prague Metro Rolls Out Driverless Trains with Leather Seats

Prague is preparing for a major upgrade to its metro system, with fully automated trains set to debut on lines C and D. The City Hall has approved a new standard for metro cars, introducing driverless operation, leather seating, and a unified station design. The modernization also aims to reduce excessive advertising and improve wayfinding across the network. The update replaces outdated 2016 standards, which no longer reflected technological advances or contemporary approaches to public space. The new document ensures the smooth rollout of Line D and the replacement of trains on Line C, the city’s busiest metro line. Key Features of the New Trains All future trains will operate as fully connected units rather than separate cars, improving passenger flow and safety. The removal of the driver’s cab will allow fully autonomous operation. Passengers will benefit from retractable platforms that bridge the gap between the train and the station, making boarding easier for people with strollers, wheelchairs, or luggage. Seats will be arranged both across and along the train, using leather-like material that is easy to clean and hygienic. Additional space will be allocated for strollers, bicycles, and shopping carts. Electronic information systems will provide real-time updates, including automatic...

Prague’s Board Game Café BB&B Opens Second Location in Palmovka

It has been nine years since the first modern board game café opened in Vršovice. Since 2017, Bohemia Boards & Brews has been the main spot in Prague to grab a beer and play something from a library of hundreds of games. Now, the team is finally expanding to a second location in Palmovka. This new space is a major upgrade: it has a full kitchen, a summer garden, and a focus on shorter, social games. We sat down with the founder Douglas to talk about the move and why people are still ditching their phones for board games. What made you leave corporate life for a board game café? I’d been working in marketing and branding for several years. I noticed board game cafés taking off in North America and the UK, but in Prague, there was nothing like it—no dedicated places where adults could play games while enjoying food and drinks. I knew the concept would work here. We opened as the first of our kind and were busy from day one. What’s kept Vršovice thriving, and why expand now to Palmovka? Vršovice succeeded because people genuinely love games and still want to go out. We built a...

Same-Day Parcels Now Available Through Bolt in Prague

Bolt is now entering the courier market in Prague with its new service, Bolt Send. The platform allows both private and business users to send small parcels, forgotten items, or gifts on the same day, often within minutes, all through the Bolt app. Bolt Send simplifies the delivery process.
