Prague’s riverfront embankments and other locations along the Vltava will offer activities for children, adults, and seniors.

The festival aims to highlight the Vltava as a natural part of Prague’s urban environment and an important ecological feature, while giving visitors the opportunity to spend a day exploring the river and its surroundings.

Experts from a range of fields will discuss the Vltava in its broader context and offer insights into lesser-known aspects of the river.

This year’s programme will involve organisations including the Prague Institute of Planning and Development, Prague City Tourism, the Prague City Gallery, the Vltava River Authority, Prague Waterworks and Sewerage Company, the Prague Water Management Company, ROPID, Prague City Forests, the Nature Conservation Agency of the Czech Republic, and many others.

The festival area will extend farther along the Vltava this year, reaching Žluté lázně and the new Dvorecký Bridge, which has quickly become a popular destination for Prague residents since opening.

Most events will be free to attend, although some activities will require advance registration due to limited capacity.

More information is available on the festival’s Facebook event.
