September 20-21: Agave Fest Brings Mexican Culture and Traditions to Prague

Colectivo LATAM, the team behind the Día de Muertos festival, is bringing Agave Fest to Prague for the first time on September 20–21, 2025. The festival will take place at Gabriel Loci and is supported by the Mexican Embassy in the Czech Republic, highlighting growing cultural and economic connections between the two countries.

Prague and the 15-Minute City? Only for One in Seven Residents

In the first year of the Friendly City Index, Prague ranked second among Central and Eastern European metropolises. Yet only 13.82% of residents can reach most daily destinations – work, schools, shops, or healthcare – within 15 minutes. The best metropolises in the region remain closer to “30-minute cities.” Young Czechs are closest to the ideal: 34% of those aged 18–24 said they can reach everyday destinations within 15 minutes. Middle-aged people, especially 45–54, scored the worst at 14.7%. Smaller Czech cities outperform Prague. Olomouc (36%), Ostrava (29.7%), and Brno (21.8%) all ranked better in their categories. Compact urban structures and shorter distances explain much of this advantage. Polish cities also dominated the rankings, including Krakow, Szczecin, and Lublin. Among metropolises, Warsaw leads with 15.9%. In other categories: Krakow (30.3%), Split (44%), Rijeka (53.3%), and Zadar (53.6%). Riga ranked worst at 9.8%, while Zagreb scored only 20%. The smaller the city, the better the accessibility Around 10–15% in metropolises, 30% in large cities, 40%+ in medium-sized cities, and over 50% in small cities. Even cities with metro systems like Prague or Bucharest show little improvement, confirming that compactness and urban structure matter more than infrastructure alone. Transport habits In Central...

Prague Airport Gets Green Light for Underground Station

Prague’s planned rail connection to Václav Havel Airport has moved forward after the state rail infrastructure manager Správa železnic (SŽ) received the final permit for the airport’s new underground railway station — the first of its kind in Czechia. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2027, with completion targeted for 2030. The project will be financed through a public-private partnership (PPP), with costs estimated at 6.5 billion crowns. According to SŽ spokesperson Nela Eberl Friebová, the approval marks a turning point: “The permit allows us to move from planning to actual preparation for construction. Work will take about three years and will include not only the station itself but also new tracks connecting the airport with Ruzyně and Veleslavín.” The underground hub will feature two tracks with a double-sided platform, making transfers between trains and airport terminals straightforward. The design, developed in cooperation with Prague Airport, aims for functionality and a clean, modern look. Airport officials and SŽ have already signed a cooperation agreement to ensure the station meets international airport standards. The new station is just one element of the broader Prague–Airport–Kladno railway modernization, a project that includes about ten separate construction sites. Some upgrades are already finished, while...

Prague Hosts TEDx on Sustainability and Regenerative Projects

Prague will host TEDxPragueCountdown: Future of Ecosystems on September 20–21 at CAMP Prague, bringing together experts and practitioners to discuss practical solutions for sustainable living. The two-day event aims to move beyond abstract plans and showcase real-world projects that are already making an impact across Europe. The first day, running from 1:00 to 11:00 PM, will feature eight speakers sharing experiences from implementing regenerative projects. Topics include the transformation of £430 million into sustainable investments, the use of mushrooms as packaging, and the cultivation of 55 vegetable varieties on a single Czech farm. Attendees will also hear how festivals can foster community development and get an update on climate science without extreme warnings or oversimplified optimism. The second day, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, participants can take part in workshops covering subjects such as circular economy practices and forest therapy, with a special morning session led by Zak Avery on building thriving communities. Speakers include Hana Sahulová Součková, a farmer demonstrating the economic viability of regenerative agriculture; David Šohaj Minařík, CEO of Myco, which produces sustainable packaging from mushrooms; Dr. Anna Kšírová of Doctors for Future, exploring the links between climate and health; Kateřina Eklová of Rethink Architecture, focusing...

Why Converting Offices into Apartments Could Be Prague’s Next Big Housing Solution

Every day in my work as a real estate consultant, I see the same problem: Prague doesn’t have enough new apartments to meet demand. Buyers face record-high prices, yet properties continue to sell because demand remains strong. This imbalance is pushing owners and developers to explore creative solutions. One trend, common in Western Europe and the US but only now emerging in the Czech Republic, is converting office buildings and hotels into residential spaces. A clear example is the Trianon office building near Budějovická metro station. Built in 2009, it offers over 20,000 square meters of rental space and is currently occupied by Česká spořitelna employees. Once the bank moves its headquarters to Smíchov, Trianon will be empty. Its owner, the real estate fund Reico, is already considering whether to sell the building or transform it into apartments. The idea makes sense. In Prague 4, where Trianon is located, several new office projects are in the pipeline, creating strong competition for tenants. Converting Trianon into housing would better reflect market reality: Prague needs homes more than it needs additional offices. This isn’t the first example of such a conversion in the city, but it would be among the first involving...

Prague’s First Christmas Market of 2025 to Open in November

Prague’s festive season will begin earlier than many might expect. The first of the city’s Christmas markets is set to welcome visitors on Thursday, November 20, 2025, at Náměstí Míru. Organizers confirmed that the market will run every day from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., closing on December 24, Christmas Eve. Stalls will offer seasonal food, drinks, gifts, and traditional crafts, continuing the long-standing tradition that makes Prague one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations. In addition, visitors can admire a display of traditional arts and crafts, such as sword making, or enjoy the extensive additional programme while humming along to the sound of Christmas carols. While Náměstí Míru opens the festive season, the city’s largest markets on Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square will launch later, on Saturday, November 29. These two central markets, heavily visited by both locals and tourists, will remain open well into the new year, operating until January 6, 2026. The Christmas markets have been repeatedly named among the world’s best ones by CNN Travel or European Best Destination web pages. The Telegraph, The Independent, Travel Europe, or Skyscanner tend to praise them too. Would you like us to write about your business? Find out more

Prague 2 Reveals New Sports Hall and Renovations for Riegrovy Sady

Prague’s Riegrovy sady park could soon undergo a major transformation. Prague 2 officials have outlined plans for a new outdoor sports field, a multifunctional hall, and the complete renovation of the popular U Draka playground. The land designated for the new sports field is currently occupied by two temporary structures — the Ice Magic ice sculpture gallery and the Containall sports and cultural center. Both have been deemed unauthorized, and Prague 2 has called on operators to dismantle them in the coming months. Deputy Mayor Jan Recman (ODS) explained that the revitalization will be carried out in two key phases. The first focuses on modernizing existing areas, particularly sports grounds that have long been in need of repair. “We want Riegrovy sady to remain a park for everyone, a place of rest and gathering across generations. But until the land is under our administration, our hands are tied,” Recman told residents. City officials are considering several underground parking levels beneath the new hall, with access from Polská Street, to help ease pressure on Vinohrady’s busy streets. Managing noise, events, and public space Alongside construction plans, Prague 2 is preparing new rules for how Riegrovy sady is used. Residents have long...

Lime Scooters in Prague Face New Parking Rules

Shared e-scooters and bikes from Lime will soon come under tighter control in Prague. The company has begun testing Captur, an artificial intelligence system that evaluates whether a scooter has been parked properly before a ride can be officially ended. The process is simple: at the end of each journey, the rider must take a photo of the scooter. Captur then analyzes the image in real time. If the machine blocks a sidewalk, building entrance, or another public space, the rider receives an immediate warning and cannot finish the ride until the scooter is moved. According to Lime, the aim is to reduce conflicts over abandoned scooters in Prague’s busy streets. “We want our vehicles to serve the city without getting in the way of people who do not use them,” explained Václav Petr, Lime’s general manager for Czechia and Hungary. “Thanks to Captur, the feedback comes instantly. Riders see the problem at the moment of parking, when they can still correct it, instead of waiting for one of our employees to review the photo.” Early results from more than 70 cities worldwide show that improper parking cases dropped by about 15 percent after Captur was introduced. The number of...

“Holocaust 2025”: Jewish Shop in Prague Targeted With Anti-Semitic Graffiti

A Jewish souvenir and kosher food store in Prague’s Vinohrady district has been vandalized for the third time in a month. Police say they are investigating the case, but the perpetrator remains unidentified. The most recent attack was discovered early Tuesday morning, when staff arrived to find phrases such as “Fascists” and “Holocaust 2025” spray-painted in blue across the shop window and walls. Although no one has directly confronted the vandal, security cameras have repeatedly filmed him arriving in the early hours, usually between 4:00 and 5:00 a.m. In the most recent footage, the man appears wearing a sombrero and staring into the lens for several seconds. Earlier recordings showed the same man urinating on the store’s entrance. While the graffiti has been consistent, the shop has not sustained structural damage beyond paint on the walls and windows. Despite the clear footage, police have yet to detain a suspect. “In the last month we have recorded three incidents of spray-painting at a store on Belgická Street. They are being investigated as property damage,” Prague police spokesperson Jan Rybanský said. If the offender is caught and convicted, he could face up to three years in prison. The chairman of Prague’s Jewish...
