Murder on the Yacht: ‘The Cat’s Meow’ Comes to Prague

The Mad and Merry Men theatre company will open the new season with The Cat’s Meow, a dark comedy set in 1920s Hollywood. The play is inspired by the mysterious death of film producer Thomas Ince, whose fate on a yacht owned by publishing tycoon William Randolph Hearst became one of Hollywood’s greatest scandals. Written by Steven Peros and later adapted into a film, the story brings together real-life figures such as Charlie Chaplin, Marion Davies, and Hearst himself on a weekend cruise filled with jazz, jealousy, and intrigue. The Prague production will be staged at Loď Tajemství, the floating theatre on the Vltava river. Director Raynar Rogers leads an international cast including Scott Sophos as Hearst, Begüm Burian as actress Margaret Livingston, and Oliver Fecko as Thomas Ince. Producer Gordon L. Schmitz highlights the unusual setting: “Audiences will actually step onto Hearst’s yacht, greeted by a live jazz pianist. They can even join in the 1920s atmosphere by dressing up for the occasion.”     Visualizza questo post su Instagram   Un post condiviso da The Mad And Merry Men (@themadandmerrymen) The Cat’s Meow runs for three nights only – 28, 29 and 30 August at 19:30.

57 Years Since Warsaw Pact Troops Invaded Czechoslovakia

On August 21, 1968, Soviet troops and their Warsaw Pact allies invaded Czechoslovakia to bring an end to that country’s brief period of political liberalization, called the Prague Spring. People still recall waking up on that fateful morning to find that Soviet-led Warsaw Pact tanks had rolled into the country, crushing all hope of implementing the democratic reforms of the Prague Spring. Shocked citizens took to the streets in protest of the invasion. About 500,000 troops were involved in the invasion and occupation, during which 137 Czechoslovaks died and some 500 were wounded. One of the key battles was for the control of Czech Radio, similar to the one that took place at the end of the Second World War. The invasion ended the political and economic reforms led by Alexander Dubcek and reasserted dominant Soviet and Communist authority in Czechoslovakia. It also helped establish the Brezhnev Doctrine, which Moscow said allowed the U.S.S.R. to intervene in any country where a communist government was under threat. Within the following year, resistance faded, Dubček was removed from office, his reforms were undone, and a more Soviet-controlled government was installed.

Prague to Mark 150 Years of Public Transport with Grand Tram Parade

Prague will celebrate 150 years of public transit on Sunday, September 21, 2025, with a festive tram parade. Organized by the Prague Public Transit Company (DPP), the event will feature 40 trams covering a 12-kilometer route through the city. The celebration will open with a display of all participating trams on Sokolovská Street, between the Křižíkova and Urxova stops, starting at 9:30 a.m. Historic vehicles and classic models will line up alongside the newest 52T tram, offering a clear look at the evolution of Prague’s public transport. At the forefront of the parade, departing at 11:00 a.m., will be a horse-drawn carriage—just as trams were in the mid-19th century—creating a striking contrast with the state-of-the-art 52T. Short speeches will be given around 10:45 a.m. before the trams begin their journey. Spectators are encouraged to watch the parade along the route. For easy access, take the metro—Line B to Křižíkova or Invalidovna for the exhibition, or Line A to Staroměstská or Malostranská for the prime photography vantage point at Mánes Bridge (“Mánesův most”). A limited number of special tickets for riding in select trams will be available for purchase. Details and pre-sale dates will be announced soon via fanshop.dpp.cz    ...

Prague to Raise Fines for Fare Dodgers in September

Starting in September, passengers caught without a valid ticket on Prague’s public transport will face higher penalties. The fine issued directly by an inspector will rise from the current 1,000 CZK to 1,200 CZK. If the payment is delayed, the penalty will climb to 1,500 CZK, and in the most serious cases up to 2,000 CZK. According to Filip Drápal, spokesperson for Ropid, the goal is to keep a fair balance between ticket prices and penalties. “The adjustment ensures that paying for a valid ticket remains the more attractive option,” he told Novinky. The decision on fines comes alongside a broader plan to raise ticket prices. From January, a 30-minute ticket will increase from 30 CZK to 39 CZK, or 36 CZK if purchased through the Lítačka mobile app. A 90-minute ticket will go from 40 CZK to 50 CZK, or 46 CZK via the app. Despite the increase, traveling without a ticket in Prague will remain less costly than in the Central Bohemian Region, where fines for fare dodgers were raised in June to 2,500 CZK. Currently, Prague offers several discounts for quick payment. If passengers settle their fine on the spot or within fifteen days, they pay 1,000...

Meet Lucy: 3.18-Million-Year-Old Human Fossil Arrives in Prague

For the first time ever, one of the world’s most famous fossils arrived in Europe. Prague’s National Museum will showcase two of the world’s most famous human ancestor fossils. Lucy, a 3.2-million-year-old Australopithecus afarensis skeleton, and Selam, the remains of a child of the same species, arrived in the Czech capital on Friday. The fossils, on loan from the Ethiopian National Museum, will be on display from August 25 for two months. Lucy, an Australopithecus afarensis, was named after Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds by The Beatles, a song played repeatedly at the archaeologists’ campsite when her remains were discovered in 1974 near the village of Hadar in the Afar Triangle. Both fossils are regarded as Ethiopia’s most valuable cultural treasures. Their arrival was made possible through an agreement between the Czech and Ethiopian governments, with the Czech state providing guarantees for the loan. The transport of the fossils was treated with the utmost care. They were flown in aboard Ethiopian Airlines accompanied by Lukeš, Ethiopian Cultural Heritage Authority director Abebawa Ajalu Gella, curators from both countries, and members of the Czech police Rapid Response Unit, which also escorted the fossils to the museum on Wenceslas Square. Lucy and...

Prague to Install 1,500 Charging Stations for Electric Vehicles (EVs)

Prague is set to launch one of its most ambitious infrastructure projects in recent years – the installation of 1,500 public charging stations for electric vehicles (EVs). The rollout will focus on slow-charging points placed in residential areas, allowing drivers to conveniently charge overnight on city streets. The project is estimated to cost nearly CZK 493 million and will be fully financed from the city budget. All charging stations will remain under municipal ownership. Zdeněk Hřib, Prague’s First Deputy Mayor for Transport, emphasized that public infrastructure is essential for the city’s transition to clean mobility. “Without accessible charging options, electromobility will remain the privilege of a small group. Prague must ensure that every resident has the opportunity to make the switch,” he said. By expanding charging infrastructure, Prague hopes to cut greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, and reduce traffic noise. According to Hřib, “This is a concrete step toward a cleaner, healthier city. Investing in emission-free mobility makes sense from ecological, economic, and social perspectives.” The new network will be integrated into Prague’s broader strategy for sustainable urban mobility. The city has committed to supporting a carbon-neutral future, with the EV project serving as a cornerstone of that effort....

September 6: Prague Hosts Indian Festival of Music, Food, and Community

Prague will host its annual celebration of Indian culture, Ganeshotsav, on Saturday, September 6, at Kulturní dům Ládví. Ganeshotsav, the festival honoring Lord Ganesha, is more than a celebration of Indian culture—it’s a way to bring people together. Since 2021, the festival has grown into a space where Indian and Czech communities can meet, connect, and enjoy shared traditions. The event is organised by Maharashtra Mandal, Czech Republic, a registered non-profit dedicated to promoting friendship and understanding between Indian and Czech residents. The festival features traditional Indian rituals, music, dance, and food, and welcomes everyone to join in the fun. This year, the festival also adds a charitable aspect: part of the registration fees will go to support non-profits in India (Matrubhoomi) and the Czech Republic (Karmabhoomi). “With this initiative, we want to contribute to the development of communities both in our country of origin and in the country that is now our home,” says the organizers to Prague Morning. By partnering with like-minded organisations, the festival encourages intercultural dialogue, mutual respect, and connections between diverse communities living in the Czech Republic. Like last year, organizers will support small entrepreneurs from the Indian community who will present the diversity of...

GALLERY: New Loft Apartments Under Construction in Prague’s Chodov

In Prague, the trend toward smaller apartments continues to dominate the real estate market, and the City Lofts Chodov project is responding to this demand with style. The development, known as City Lofts Chodov, is scheduled for completion with units available for occupancy in the last quarter of 2027. The seven-story building on Litochlebské náměstí, is designed with a segmented, crystalline facade that separates individual balconies and provides privacy for residents. While the exterior differs from typical Prague apartment buildings and may attract mixed opinions from architectural observers, it shares geometric qualities reminiscent of Prague’s historic cubist structures, though on a larger scale. Interior Layout and Design Apartments are planned with an industrial-inspired interior, allowing future residents to customize the space. The project includes penthouse units measuring up to 120 m², each featuring a terrace extending along the full length of the apartment. All units face south and include large floor-to-ceiling windows to maximize natural light. Residents will be able to access doors via QR code, summon elevators automatically, and enter the garage using license plate recognition. Location City Lofts Chodov is located within a five-minute walk of the Opatov metro station, with nearby bus stops providing additional public transport...

Galerie Rudolfinum Presents Iván Argote’s Largest Solo Exhibition

Galerie Rudolfinum is presenting Radical Tenderness, the largest institutional solo exhibition to date by Colombian-born, Paris-based artist Iván Argote. Running until September 7, 2025, the exhibition is free and comes after a landmark year for Argote, marked by his participation in the Venice Biennale and the installation of Dinosaur—a five-metre-high pigeon sculpture—on New York’s High Line. Curated by Leonardo Bigazzi, the show spans over 15 years of Argote’s career, with works in painting, photography, sculpture, installation, performance, and film. It combines new site-specific commissions with key works from earlier series, encouraging visitors to reconsider how public spaces and monuments shape memory and identity. “Radical Tenderness is an open conversation about how we can imagine a different public space,” says Argote. “It’s about unlearning inherited systems of power and dreaming of spaces built on openness, care, and solidarity.” Known for playful, provocative interventions, Argote challenges the authority of monuments and redefines art institutions as places for activism. His works often question who decides which histories are celebrated and which are forgotten, and how art can foster collective healing. Exhibition highlights include an indoor sculpture garden of plants and weeds as a proposal for an ideal public park; botanical paintings directly on...

Prague Ranked Among the Best in the World for Gen Z to Live In

Are you under 30 and with a serious case of European wanderlust? Well, Time Out surveyed 18,500 locals from across the world and consulted a panel of experts to find out which cities are the best of the best based on food, culture, green spaces, walkability and nightlife. But not every generation thinks the same, so they took those answers and sorted them by age to find out which cities are the most popular cities among their Gen-Z inhabitants. Bangkok claimed the worldwide crown, but the top 20 was dominated by hubs from all over Europe, with Copenhagen claiming first place. One of the happiest places on earth, according to the 2025 Happy City Index, Copenhagen received consistent high praise for safety, stability, education, public transport, health care and all around quality of life. No wonder 64 percent of Gen-Zers living there approve. There’s loads to do, after all. It’s Denmark’s cultural hub with a plethora of museums, markets, castles and palaces housed in Renaissance, Baroque and Neoclassical architecture. There are also large parks like the King’s Garden or Dyrehaven, a forest that’s home to thousands of deer; a delicious food scene of seasonal Nordic cuisine (smørrebrød, anyone?), and a...
