The first premiere of this year's theater season at Fidlovačka will be a new adaptation of the cult film musical "The Lady on the Tracks."

"The Lady on the Tracks" invites viewers on a journey (by tram) through the complex yet entertaining fate of a woman.

Taste Mělnicko: Sometimes all it takes for good food is just to take a turn off the road.
How many times do we pass by an interesting place without even noticing it? And how many times do we search for good food somewhere far away, even though we have it almost around the corner? This idea gave rise to the project Taste Mělnicko, which connects gastronomy with travel and shows our region in a slightly different way.
Morricone conducts Morricone. Tickets for the exceptional concert in Prague are disappearing at an astonishing rate!
There are melodies where just a few initial notes can instantly conjure an entire film in front of your eyes. The music of Ennio Morricone has long transcended the boundaries of the movie screen. On November 10, it will resonate in Bratislava at the Tipos Arena, and a day later, on November 11, it will also be performed in Prague at the O2 Universe, conducted by the person who has the closest relationship to it, the orchestra led by the famous composer’s son, Andrea Morricone. Interest in this extraordinary concert is high, and tickets are disappearing from sale at a dizzying pace. The opportunity to experience immortal film melodies live, performed by top musicians who personally collaborated with the Maestro, is becoming increasingly rare.

Boris Kráľ. Good evening, Audrey! A celebration of women, fashion, and craftsmanship at Fashion 2000+ Moravian Gallery.
The Moravian Gallery presents another initiative from the series of contemporary fashion exhibitions. Following the projects of Liběna Rochová, Jan Černý, and Lukáš Macháček, it introduces a retrospective exhibition titled Bonsoir, Audrey! by Slovak fashion designer Boris Kráľ. For the first time, the Fashion 2000+ hall at the Museum of Applied Arts (dedicated to the exhibition of the developing collection of contemporary Czech fashion) will be devoted to a solo show. The young creator has transformed it into a distinctive installation combining fashion design and photography. On a mechanical runway, he will showcase the most significant models from his shows, from Salon de Nuit to the latest collection presented at the Expo 58 pavilion this June in Prague. The exhibition also includes a collection of behind-the-scenes photographs from the designer's shows, taken by Lena Knappova. Boris Kráľ. Bonsoir, Audrey! runs from September 25, 2026, to January 24, 2027.
Boris Brejcha will bring a techno show to the O2 Arena.
There are evenings that transform Prague into one big heart of techno. When Boris Brejcha arrives at the O2 Arena with his characteristic Venetian mask and kicks off a several-hour show that combines a monumental light scene, precise visuals, and deeper melodic tempo, the entire hall holds one single thought: what will happen in the next moment? And it is this tension of the unknown — that moment before the drop, when no one knows whether a gentle passage or an explosion of bass will come — that drives the strongest nightlife experiences in Prague. Whether it's a sold-out concert at the O2 Arena, the Signal light festival, or a marathon at the Roxy club, Prague offers that moment's tension in dozens of forms.
