September in Prague: Tips to Inspire You
8.09.2015Company: Amcham
What would September be without the Dvořák Prague festival? This kicks off on September 6, and lasts till September 23. It takes place at different locations around the city, and will feature the Philharmonia Orchestra of London, led by Christoph von Dohnányi, and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. Soloists will include such brilliant artists as Piotr Anderszewski, David Garrett, Lisa Batiashvili, and Gautier Capuçon, among many others. Check out the listed website for information and full schedule.
If you want something different, the first American-style Low&Slow barbecue festival in the Czech Republic is scheduled for September 12 and 13, and it’s called Bohemian Bluegrass. 24 professional BBQ teams from around the world will gather at Smíchovská náplavka – Smíchov riverside to cook chicken, pork ribs, pulled pork, and beef brisket in a competition for cash and prizes, and for a chance to compete in the Jack Daniels World Championship in Tennessee. Of course, you are invited to taste their creations. The family-friendly event is free for children. Some of the most talented musicians in the Czech Republic will play bluegrass music to entertain visitors during the festival.
To end the first half of the month, we’d like to recommend the Ladronkafest at Ladronka – Sports and Recreation Area on September 12, 2015. This is the largest leisure time festival in Central Europe, featuring concerts, extreme sports, creative workshops, and much more. Free admission.
