A record number of festival venues, more than one hundred Pride events in Prague and the regions, five hours of online broadcasts daily, rainbow-lit buildings throughout the Czech Republic. The jubilee tenth edition of the Prague Pride festival will take place from 3 to 9 August and, for the first time in its history, will bring together LGBT+ people and others through the interactive online Pride Stream. Theme of the festival: Pride LIVE “Prague Pride connects us LIVE”: this is the main motto of this year’s campaign and the goal of the festival itself. “We wanted to emphasise the theme of interconnection, which is very important to us. We have to get to know each other as LGBT+ people because, for example, the fact that I am a lesbian does not mean that I understand trans people. However, we don’t want to stick only with LGBT+ people, but also communicate with the people around us. The tenth Prague Pride simply has the aim of uniting the whole Czech Republic,” says festival director Hana Kulhánková. The organising team would like to attract to the programme as many people as possible from all over the country – from LGBT+ individuals and organisations, through the...
Knowing how its citizens experience temperature in the urban areas is at the heart of a new project in the Czech city of Plzeň. Finding out where citizens feel too hot or on the contrary – where they prefer to take cover from the high temperatures – this is the objective of the experienced temperature map of Plzeň (originally Pocitové teplotní mapy Plzně). In order to create its temperature map focusing on the experience of residents and visitors, Plzeň invites them to co-create it together. An anonymous questionnaire, containing three short parts is available on the website www.pocitovemapy.cz (in Czech only). Users of the online tool can simply indicate how they feel in terms of temperature and therefore create their own version of the map. To do this, they can pinpoint locations or entire areas in the Czech city where they do not feel comfortable. On the next step, they are invited to do the opposite – point the places where they do feel at ease in the summer. Questions about how often users visit these locations, for what kind of activity and for how long, must also be answered to complete the survey. Finally, users are invited to complete a...

In the next two weeks, temperatures in the Czech Republic will climb steadily. According to Czech meteorologists, Monday marks the start of a sunny period with the wind changing to east or south-east on Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing dry and very hot weather from the continent. From July 27 to August 9 temperatures will be above average, rising up to 30 degrees Celsius. On Tuesday, daytime highs could reach up to 32 degrees Celsius. “We will also have hot nights then, it will be more difficult to sleep at night”, the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (ČHMÚ) stated on its website. “There could be a chance of thunderstorms on Thursday, but this is too early to say now.” However, from mid-August, temperatures should cool a little. “During the third and fourth weeks (August 10 to 23) the weekly average temperature will range around 24 degrees Celsius,” the institute said.

As of this Saturday at midnight, wearing a face-covering will be mandatory at indoor events with over 100 people and capping gatherings to 500 people. From Monday, July 27, the public will be required also to wear a face mask in GP surgeries and pharmacies, “where it is not always possible to maintain a two-meter distance from other people”, the Czech government said in an update on its website. “The situation in Prague is not completely rosy, but there is no reason to worry too much,” the director of Prague’s hygienist office, Zdeňka Jágrová, told Czech Television. According to Jágrová, it is not possible to trace the origin of the infection in about 40 percent of those infected. This is the reason for extending the obligation to wear face masks to all medical facilities. Prague reports 52 new coronavirus cases in 24 hours, the largest increase since the first half of April. The main reason is, among other things, the outbreak in the night club Techtle Mechtle. Czech testing labs found 235 new cases of infection by the new coronavirus on Thursday, the Health Ministry said on Wednesday, for a total of 14,800. The number of active cases has grown...
