The Czech Philharmonic’s regular open-air Concert will take place on June 21 at the end of this year’s season.
The event will take place once again at Hradčanské náměstí, opposite Prague Castle.
Keith Lockhart, a well-known American conductor, will lead the musicians. The orchestra will perform compositions by Mozart, Alan Silvestri (Back to the Future, Forrest Gump, Outcast, and Contact), and other composers.
The concert will start at 20:15.
Admission to the open air concert is free. However, limited seating is available, and no reservations are possible. Most of the audience is standing.
