“This is Our Last Chance to be Seen”: Club Roxy Pleads for Government Support

Club Roxy held a protest to ask the Czech government for funding in their ‘last chance to be seen’ before they face closure.  On Wednesday, September 30th, the dance music club bathed itself in red light to show solidarity with the #WeMakeEvents movement, a global day of action that has seen thousands of venues tell those in power that the live events sector urgently needs support to survive the Covid-19 crisis. Roxy is asking for a grant payment that would cover rent, electricity and gas bills until they can reopen.  The peaceful protests attracted long-time Roxy supporters, resident DJ’s and concerned staff. Hana Makovcová, Roxy’s Head of PR, said that this is their ‘last stab in the dark’ to be noticed.  The clubbing scene has been hit hard by Covid restrictions, and Prague is no exception. Roxy says they have received no real support from the government, forcing them to close permanently in the next month if nothing changes.  Jaroslav Stanko, the manager of Roxy, said that joining this initiative was a way to raise awareness of their struggle. “Our government doesn’t really care for our industry. We received very little support from our government,” Stanko told Prague Morning. “A...

The Smallest Chef in the World Comes to the Czech Republic

For the first time,  Le Petit Chef, the smallest chef in the world, will make an appearance in Prague, at The Able Butcher restaurant, Hilton Prague. This little animated character is just 58 mm tall, and he will not grow any taller. Le Petit Chef ‘comes to life’ with technology developed by a Belgian-based company. This innovative dining experience delivers, using 3D projection mapping, the story of a small animated chef onto diners’ plates, where he proceeds to ‘cook’ their food in front of them. With the help of overhead projectors, the dining table transforms into an immersive theatre where the tablecloth, plates, and utensils become backdrops and props for the story’s hero to show off his culinary prowess. Since his creation in 2010, Le Petit Chef has become a viral sensation in restaurants around the world, from London to Singapore, from Dubai to Kuala Lumpur. Now, he will be hosted in Prague by Hilton Prague at The Able Butcher restaurant. “This year, starting October 7, I am delighted that we will be hosting the smallest chef in the world, which has been a tremendous success worldwide. It is an exclusive experience in Prague and I am proud we have sole rights for...

Corona Crisis Forces “U Fleků” Brewery to Break 177-Year Old Tradition

U Fleků, one of the oldest Prague breweries, broke a 177-year old tradition to expand its appeal. In response to the decrease in tourism, it has brewed a light beer called ‘Svatováclavský ležák’ for the first time ever. Since 1843, U Fleků has produced exclusively classic dark beer with a gravity of 13%. The brewery, which previously focused on tourists, plans now to attract more local residents. Light beer varieties are traditionally much more popular among Czechs. The coronavirus has hit the brewery hard. Half of the staff were laid off, and beer production fell to 15% of the pre-crisis level. The classic dark beer remains on the menu and dropped in price from 69 to 59 CZK for 400 ml to cope with the pandemic challenges. If the light Svatováclavský ležák is received well by locals, production will continue. About U Fleků U Fleků is the largest restaurant in the Czech Republic, seating 1200 people. In 1499, it was owned by a man called Kremenec; a name which later which lived on in the street the brewery sits on. In 1762, the brewery began to prosper under the ownership of a brewer named Flekovsky, which the brewery is still...

New Frame in Chodov Shopping Centre ‘Disinfects the Whole Body’

In the Westfield Chodov shopping center, a special frame was installed for customers which disinfect the whole body in a few seconds. The novelty is intended to prevent coronavirus and seasonal respiratory diseases. The device consists of a metal frame with an integrated spray mechanism. When a person passes through the frame, they trigger sensors that release tiny droplets of disinfectant. According to the management, the solution is natural and therefore should not irritate the skin or damage clothing. “In addition to mandatory measures, we also undergo a Health and Safety audit. At the beginning of July, the shopping centre received the highest level of certification, Safe & Healthy Places, which is the maximum standard available for hygiene and safety. The certification of the centre was granted by the independent auditing company Bureau Veritas,” said Petra Valentová, the marketing manager of the Westfield Chodov centre. xosotin chelseathông tin chuyển nhượngcâu lạc bộ bóng đá arsenalbóng đá atalantabundesligacầu thủ haalandUEFAevertonfutebol ao vivofutemaxmulticanaisonbetbóng đá world cupbóng đá inter milantin juventusbenzemala ligaclb leicester cityMUman citymessi lionelsalahnapolineymarpsgronaldoserie atottenhamvalenciaAS ROMALeverkusenac milanmbappenapolinewcastleaston villaliverpoolfa cupreal madridpremier leagueAjaxbao bong da247EPLbarcelonabournemouthaff cupasean footballbên lề sân cỏbáo bóng đá mớibóng đá cúp thế giớitin bóng đá ViệtUEFAbáo bóng đá việt...

Lunchmeat Festival 2020 – We Must Keep Dancing

Lunchmeat Festival 2020 – the annual cutting-edge club arena for electronic music paired with state-of-the-art audio-visual technics – will take place from September 28 till October 3. The festival combines performances for sit-down attention and contemplation with later evenings for revels on the dancefloor. However, the motto for this year’s festival is “We See You Dancin’” which puts more emphasis on our need for such a release, especially in these weird times of both post-quarantine and another potentially upcoming quarantine. SOPHIE is the biggest name on the festival’s marquee this year. As a Los-Angeles based, Scottish singer, performer and producer, SOPHIE has a colorful and singular PC sound from her own software produced adrenaline-charged synth-pop merged with elements of sound blasts, like the twists and turns of computer games or sound fragments on movie soundtracks–the new “natural” sounds of life around us. SOPHIE has emerged from her underground status recently as a top-ranked producer for pop stars including Charli XCX, Kendrick Lamar, and even Madonna (see the video “Bitch, I’m Madonna”). Another experimental pop artist at the top of the bill is Lyra Pramuk, who works with recordings of her own voice, which she manipulates or processes through software and...

Prague in Numbers: Pragozor Offers Live Data on the City

In 2019, 197,842 new trees were planted in Prague. The average person used 114 litres of water per day in 2019, and motorists spend an average of five days and eight hours in traffic jams per year. This is Prague in numbers, as offered by the new data-crunching website, Pragozor. With one hundred and fifteen eye-catching graphs to explore, you can find information on health, housing, environment, public transport, cars, safety, mobility, and tourism – as well as live data on coronavirus cases. The data offers insights into the success and failings of Prague. For example, Every citizen of Prague (including infants and seniors) produces 330 kg of waste per year, yet the amount of waste that ends up in landfill is steadily decreasing. There is a shortage of surgeons in the city, but Prague is rated as having better access to healthcare than Vienna and Berlin. The number of new builds has increased since 2019, but so has the price and the number of city flats that are privatised. Meanwhile, the rate of violent crime has dropped drastically while cases of graffiti have increased.  Mayor Zdeněk Hřib commented: “The smart city is data-driven. I am glad that we can now offer...

‘Prague Tomorrow’ Exhibition Invites You to Explore the City’s Future

How will Prague look in the next 20 years? Discover the answer at ‘Prague Tomorrow? Priorities in Prague’, an exhibition at the Centre for Architecture and Metropolitan Planning (CAMP). The exhibition consists of 25 public construction projects which explore ways to transform Prague. They include ambitious aims to transform a brownfield area in the Nové district, to complete the inner city ring road, and build a new park on the island of Štvanice. Mayor Zdeněk Hřib believes that transforming Bubny-Zátory, the city’s largest brownfield, is a particularly fundamental objective for the city as it will improve access to housing. However, Deputy Mayor Petr Hlaváček is supporting potential plans to build a philharmonic building, which he hopes could become a creative symbol of 21st century Prague. Ondřej Boháč, director of the Institute of Planning and Development, explains that the exhibition is a “model selection of twenty-five interesting projects that will change the expression of Prague as we know it today.” The projects have been divided into five specific categories: new neighbourhoods, squares, parks and opportunities and connections. What unites them is improvements for life in the city. Not all of these projects will come to life.  Pavel Vyhnánek, Deputy Mayor for Finance and...
