“Dinner in the Sky” is an amazing dining experience combined with an exclusive environment, spectacular views, cuisine from renowned chefs, and all of this at up to 50 meters above the earth. A crane lifts the table with 22 guests to a height of up to 50 meters above the earth. When this event first began in the Czech Republic ten years ago, many conventional gourmets were quite skeptical, suggesting that they don’t need to be hung somewhere in the air to enjoy delightful cuisine. Dinner in the Sky first started when Belgian entrepreneurs David Ghysels and Stefan Kerkhofs devised this concept. It quickly expanded to many major cities across the world, including Prague, where it has been celebrated every September. In its initial stages, Dinner in the Sky was set up in Kampa, before the crane and platform were relocated to Riegrovy sady. This year, it is returning to the historic center along Dvorák’s embankment where a team of professionals, with a guest chef and waiting team, will serve from the center of the table. The menu features pumpkin soup with red curry and coconut milk, beef cheeks, mashed potatoes, and Japanese wasabi horseradish as the main course, vanilla crème brûlée with raspberry sorbet and pistachios...

“An extension of Prague’s public transport” – this is how representatives of Nextbike, the largest domestic bike-sharing company, talk about their upcoming project with the city administration. According to them, Prague could become the first Czech city in which public transport tickets will include bike-sharing. According to Tomáš Karpov, the director of operations at Nextbike, every holder of Lítačka could simply unlock a bike to get to a destination faster and for free. “Right now, we are in the negotiation process with the Prague city company Operátor ICT and the city’s PID. We are discussing whether the idea is technically feasible at all. But if it worked out, it would be great for Praguers. I would like to point out that the Lítačka could then be used to unlock bikes from even our company’s competitors,” explains Karpov. “Nextbike already operates in 23 cities in the Czech Republic, including Prague. Furthermore, we rely on support from city administrations in nineteen of them. It is a question of how something similar would work in Prague,” said Adam Scheinherr, Deputy Mayor for Transport. Tábor, a town in South Bohemia, serves as an example of how functional and useful such a system can be....
