Praha 7 – Local tips (music venues)

This tearoom is very dear to me. Perhaps also because I had the possibility to work there and get to know the person who runs the place.

I like it mainly because its atmosphere, the tone of the colors the walls are painted with and the style in which the tearoom is furnished. And of course, not to be missed! It is situated in the tower. So after two cups of the finest tea it is hard to say if it is the height of the mysterious tower or the tea that you are feeling.

The tearoom also serves as a library so you can enjoy your tea with some of the books they offer (some of them are in English). Every Saturday there is a drum session that anybody can join.

The Tearoom in the Tower also has really good prices compared to other tearooms in Prague. So if you don’t mind going a little out of the city center, you will not be disappointed.

Get swallowed by a living mechanical organism, moving in the rhythm of ska-punk-rockabilly-techno-drone-dnb-jungle-hip hop-chill out.

Buy a drink in one the bars and then sit down. I tell you – that’s the best position to admire a fan made of scrap iron and car-exhaust pipes. Lights above the tables consisting of gearboxes, drain pipes and kinetic sculptures of many kinds. All polished and mounted with care, animated with extreme effort and unlimited imagination.

Cross club is truly one of the most original Prague clubs. Gives enough space for whatever I feel like doing. Two stages, a theater and two to three bars are open for all kinds of concerts, poetry readings, exhibitions, and I shall not forget to mention the Ghettolledge – a street university.

Be sure that by your next visit there something will have changed – because the world behind the looking glass is never the same, including the numerous corridors that made you feel like you were lost in the rabbit hole the very first time you entered.

La Fabrika has shone like the Bethlehem star in the field of art for a couple of years now. A free space for art that is contemporary but comprehensible for a broader public.

La Fabrika does not have a static group of artists, so it is truly a „free space”, as it calls itself. I love to go there see some dance, La Putyka for instance last time (which is brilliant, but – to enjoy it in its fullness is better to be able to understand Czech – or have some Czech companion, who can translate some of the songs).

Or I also remember the festival of modern classical music, Contempuls, which was perfect – from free wine on the bar till the last note of the evening. There are also all kinds of visual art and other multimedia events. The scope of La Fabrika is really broad and always interesting.
