Seventh Edition of Food & Culture Embassy Festival to Take Place on June 8

The Festival of Embassies is the largest international street food festival in Prague, where each country’s presentations are primarily showcased by their embassies, honorary consulates, or chambers of commerce.

The event will be attended by ambassadors in person, making it a truly unique event in our country in terms of the number of participating countries.

The main organizers are the Prague 6 Municipal District and the Association Farmers’ Markets, which also organize the Markets in Kulaťák.

Each country’s booth will offer original traditional dishes that are characteristic of their respective cultures.

Embassy staff, including the ambassadors themselves, and their families, will be actively involved in the cooking. Some embassies even invite renowned chefs to prepare their cuisines.

Organizers expect 15.000 visitors. At the event, there will also be various drinks, ice creams, sweets, and desserts of choice, as well as small souvenirs and original craftsmanship available.

The event will kick off again with the drummers’ band of BLABUBURO with African music, followed by Thai folk dances, and puppet performances from Brazil’s Gilberto Conti followed by Mariachi Azteca de Praga (from Mexico).

Visitors can experience, among others, a performance from India, a choir from Slovenia, folk dances from Kosovo, traditional throat singing and dancing from Mongolia, folk songs from Moldova, Limbora ensemble from Slovakia, dance group Sahar Group for Palestine, K-pop dance group for South Korea and singer Kamila Asgarova for Azerbaijan.
