New Spiral in 2025: tenorist and nominee for the Anděl award Pavel Černoch, premiere of the retro-futuristic revue The Saturn Revue, concert of Squid Game and Vojta Dyk

One of the most significant events of last year at the Exhibition Grounds was undoubtedly the opening of the New Spiral after twenty-two years, which has already hosted dozens of performances, both as part of its own productions and third-party events. The space of the stage, which was supposed to be demolished a few years ago, was opened by the musical show Resurrection, from which visitors can also look forward to repeats this year. In addition, the own production presented, in collaboration with Live Creation, the romance The Bridges of Madison County based on the literary work by Robert James Waller, which is also very popular, and this year the Spiral will offer more repeats. In the fall, however, this multi-genre space will present another of its premieres, the variety show The Saturn Revue in co-production with Deep Side Production. The retro-futuristic revue promises a unique show against the backdrop of a strong love story between two different beings. There will also be dozens of other events, including a concert by Vojta Dyk, a concert for Squid Game, and yet-to-be-announced concerts by foreign artists. This year, a small hall of the New Spiral will also open, which will be a space for music parties, children's theater performances, and modern dance shows.
