Where can I buy tickets?

Online tickets can be purchased on the Signal Festival website or on our app. Tickets can also be purchased on site. Cash and credit cards are accepted at the festival.

Signal Festival is in the Prague Castle area!

This year’s festival is special because it takes visitors through the grounds of Prague Castle. In order for this experience to run smoothly and be safe for visitors, it is important to adhere to and respect the requirements from both Prague Castle and our festival organizators.

Passage through the Prague Castle grounds (the route Third Courtyard → Supreme Purcracy → Na Opyši street, towards the Old Castle Steps leading to Malostranská Street) will be open in both directions only until 10 pm. Visitors are advised to start the Hradčany route, after 10 pm, from the Prague Castle Riding Hall or from the Prague Castle tram stop.

The route between the Prague Castle Riding Hall and the Archbishop’s Palace via the Second Courtyard of Prague Castle will be open until 00:00. The flow of visitors will be separated in two directions, so we ask visitors to follow the organizer’s instructions.

The entrance to the Sternberg Palace for the Gallery zone installation by Jiří Příhoda is through the passageway of the Archbishop’s Palace.

How to get to the Festival?

The best way is by public transport. The starting point can be the Malostranská, Staroměstská and Karlovo náměstí metro stations.

You can also use the tram stops Pražský Hrad, Pohořelec or Staroměstská as a reference point. Please note: The Prague Castle closes at 22:00, i.e. it will not be possible to walk from the Old Castle Steps through the Third Courtyard to Hradčany Square.

If you want to get from Malostranská Street to the Hradčany route after 22:00, you can use, for example, the tram service to the Prague Castle stop.

Where can I find the festival map?

Just download our Signal Festival app. You can then conveniently view the map on your mobile phone, including the full program and all the necessary information about the festival. The festival map can be found on the lightpoints at each installation, on the route navigation or on our website in the programme section.
