The Wallenstein Garden in Malá Strana will once again host its season of free classical concerts, beginning this May and continuing through September 2025.

Organized by the Senate of the Czech Republic, the event—known as Valdštejnské léto—offers the public a chance to enjoy live music in one of Prague’s most atmospheric settings, all free of charge.

This year’s first concerts are set for May 15, 22, and 29, each starting promptly at 5:00 PM. The garden is located right next to the Malostranská metro station, making it easily accessible for both locals and tourists.

These concerts attract not only music lovers but also families, students, and passersby looking to enjoy an evening in one of Prague’s most elegant gardens.

The summer-long concert series has become a fixture of Prague’s cultural calendar, with performances often featuring top musicians and ensembles from around the Czech Republic.

This early Baroque garden was commissioned in parallel with the construction of the Wallenstein Palace from 1623 to 1629 by Albrecht of Wallenstein who was at that time one of the most powerful Czech nobleman.

In the garden which is divided into several sections, you can admire peacocks, observe beautiful fish and ducks in the garden pond, and ospreys in the aviary.

The original statues were created by the Dutch sculptor Adriaen De Vries. The most unique feature of the garden is the artificial dripstone wall with grottoes.
