December 18: A Live Nativity Scene on Prague Metro Escalators

On Wednesday, December 18, passengers in the Prague Metro will experience a holiday event—a live nativity scene at Jiřího z Poděbrady station.

Known as the Mobile Nativity Scene, this performance brings a festive atmosphere to the daily commute.

Starting at 6:00 p.m., performers dressed as the Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph, baby Jesus, an angel, and the Three Wise Men will ride the station’s escalators.

Their movements will create a moving Christmas display, drawing smiles and interest from onlookers.

“The idea is to create the illusion of a moving Christmas scene on the escalator,” said the organizers. “The escalator moves, we move mechanically, and people around us are smiling and taking pictures.”

This performance will last approximately 20 to 30 minutes, giving commuters a chance to capture the moment and immerse themselves in the holiday atmosphere.
