July 11-14: French Market Returns to Kampa!

After a brief hiatus, the popular French Market returns to Kampa Square for its 17th year.

From Thursday, July 11 to Sunday, July 14, 2024, visitors can enjoy the best French delicacies and wines in the charming setting of Kampa Park.

“After the success of last year’s event at Troja Castle, I am thrilled that the French Market is returning to where it all began. Kampa Park holds a special place in my heart, and I am truly happy to welcome our loyal visitors back to this beautiful location,” says Thomas Boulton, founder and main organizer of the French Market.

The festival will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. (closing at 8 p.m. on Sunday), featuring 19 exhibitors offering a wide range of French delicacies such as oysters, mussels, Burgundy snails, regional cheeses, foie gras, hams, and charcuterie.

Visitors can also enjoy a selection of white, rosé, red, and sparkling wines from renowned wine regions like Alsace, Burgundy, Bordeaux, Champagne, and the Loire Valley, as well as wines from lesser-known local varieties.

This year’s festival also introduces a selection of French beers from microbreweries.

Exhibitors will include popular names like The Winery, Fransyr, Nostress Bakery, My Lavender, and Atelier Red & Wine. Newcomers such as Huilerie Beaujolaise, offering a variety of quality oils and vinegars, will also be part of the festival.

Entertainment will be plentiful, with a variety of musical performances enhancing the authentic French atmosphere.

Highlights include singer Zdenka Trvalcová, the musical group Charlie & The Chocolates, saxophonist Matouš Kobylka, and many other talented artists. A special program for children will also be available.

The opening ceremony will take place on Thursday, July 11 at 10 a.m. with Stéphane Crouzat, Ambassador of France to the Czech Republic, in attendance.
