Events in Prague in July
July is holiday time for the Czechs, so there isn´t very much going on in Prague that´s not designed especially for tourists. Locals therefore visit summer festivals around the Czech Republic - let´s name the most popular ones - the Karlovy Vary International film festival held in the beautiful spa town a 2 hour drive from Prague, the Rock for People music festival with Die Antwoord as headliner, Mighty Sounds, Masters of Rock or Colours of Ostrava in the unique industrial area of Dolní Vítkovice Ostrava.
Staying in Prague? Enjoy the concert of Guns´n´Roses at the Letňany airport on the 4th of July or visit one of the concerts during Bohemia Jazz Fest. They are held on town squares all around the republic including Prague and free of charge.
If you wish to become familiar with historical music, visit the The Summer Festivities of Early Music till early August. You´ll love the beautiful settings of the concerts in former royal palaces and churches.
