Pride Park
Pride Park
*What would *[Prague Pride Festival](https://www.praguepride.com/) be without Saturday at Letná! An oasis that emerges like a mirage from the fog of sweat and tears when people climb the stairs from Čech Bridge in a colorful costume with the parade. A place where cool drinks, welcome shade, rainbow shopping, and great music rhythms await. This is Pride Park.** There are many ways to spend Saturday afternoon at Letná: dance yourself silly at one of the music stages, relax with friends on a blanket, stuff yourself with ice cream, listen to queer poetry, or sip prosecco in the VIP zone. Once again this year, there will be six music stages at Pride Park: *Red Stage by Vodafone – Headliners* - 2:30 p.m. Vojtik - 3:20 p.m. NaiKavols - 5:00 p.m. Aneta Langerová - 6:30 p.m. něco něco - 7:45 p.m. Miss Petty - 9:00 p.m. Jana Uriel Kratochvílová *Yellow Stage – Party stage* - 1:30 p.m. Killa Selfie - 3:30 p.m. Zazitech - 5:30 p.m. Ascender & Binballer & Vertigo - 8:00 p.m. Dasha *Blue Stage – Hits that everyone knows from gay clubs* - 3:00 p.m. Prdelanza - 5:30 p.m. DJ Summit Nation - 8:00 p.m. WhiteCat *Green Stage – Profile: Germany* - 3:00 p.m. ADIRA presents Hassandra - 4:00 p.m. ADIRA presents xanax_attax & Ahmad Baba - 5:00 p.m. Ceekayin2u - 7:00 p.m. QUEENS AGAINST BORDERS - 8:00 p.m. Rakans *Purple Stage – Stage focused on spoken word* - 3:00 p.m. Pride Voices by Durex: Emma Kausc, Veroni Gyenge, Tobiáš Frýdl, Mery je Iluze, and others - 4:30 p.m. Searching for a home without a home - 5:30 p.m. Worship service - 6:30 p.m. Queer poetry recital - 7:30 p.m. Slam *Pink stage – Campfire stage by Merck* - “Bring your campfire songbooks” *What else does *Pride Park offer?** \ Lots of food stalls, a JarmarQ nonprofit market, stalls with fun merchandise, free attractions and activities, a pleasant picnic under the trees, a comfortable VIP zone, and, of course, free anonymous testing for sexually transmitted diseases, including counseling. From the arrival of the parade to the start of the night, everyone can look forward to hours of fun! *Pride Park with a ticket this year* \ For the first time in the history of the Prague Pride festival, admission to Pride Park will cost CZK 200. This step is related to a significant increase in prices and a decline in interest from sponsors due to Donald Trump's policies. In addition, the demands on the program, organizational arrangements, and participant safety are constantly growing. Under the current conditions, it is no longer possible to organize an afternoon for tens of thousands of people at Letná Plain free of charge for participants. The admission fee is set so as to financially secure the event while placing as little burden as possible on participants. People with ZTP/P cards and their companions, seniors over 65, and children and youth under 15 have free admission. Tickets for them are available for CZK 0 at Goout.cz. At the same time, admission to the festival's opening on Monday at Pride Village has been canceled, and everyone will have free admission this year. *How to get a ticket quickly and hassle-free?* Tickets to Pride Park will be available for purchase in advance. By purchasing them early, participants will help ensure that everyone can smoothly enter the venue after the parade arrives at Letná, where they can enjoy ice cream, refreshing drinks, or restrooms. Participants can choose from several options for purchasing a ticket to Pride Park. It is recommended to purchase tickets in advance. Advance ticket sales for Pride Park end at 10:00 p.m., along with the event. *A smart solution for those who value their time:* \ It is recommended to purchase a ticket to Pride Park well in advance online via Goout.cz. With the QR code received, participants should come to Pride Village on Střelecký Island during the festival week and pick up a wristband at the stand, which entitles them to enter Pride Park. Then just dance your way into the venue with your wristband. Alternative: if you really don't plan to go to Pride Village, the opening concert by Aiko (free admission), or the spectacular drag night (seriously?), you can pick up your wristband at the stand on Wenceslas Square on Saturday before the parade starts. However, there is a risk of queues. *Procedure for those who are only going to Letná* \ If you don't make it to Pride Village during the week and don't have time to pick up your wristband at the stand on Wenceslas Square before the parade, you can pick it up when you arrive at Pride Park. This means that you can buy your ticket online at Goout.cz even while walking in the parade. However, checking the QR code and picking up the wristband at the entrance to the venue will delay you. *What awaits those who left their heads somewhere?* \ Of course, tickets can also be purchased directly at the entrance to Pride Park, but this is the most time-consuming process. You can pay by card or cash at the ticket office. The entire procedure – payment, picking up the wristband, putting it on your wrist, and only then passing through security – will probably take a long time, as many people will likely arrive completely unprepared. *People with free admission* \ People with a ZTP/P card and their companions, seniors over 65, and children and young people under 15 have free admission. On Goout.cz, they can click on a ticket for CZK 0 and, with a QR code, either pick up a wristband at Pride Village or on Wenceslas Square before the parade, or come directly to the entrance to Pride Park and get a wristband there. *VIP zone by Pride Business Forum* \ Perhaps some people don't want to sit on the grass among the ants or arrive at Letná in high heels. Or maybe they want to have the opportunity to exchange a few words with Czech queer activists, festival partners, and stage performers. In that case, head to the VIP zone by Pride Business Forum - more info and tickets [here](https://goout.net/cs/pride-park-2025-vip-zona/szcjmvx) *Security check* \ A quick security check is designed to ensure that everyone feels comfortable inside and to minimize the likelihood of unpleasant situations. Therefore, weapons, pyrotechnics, glass bottles, alcohol, and drugs are not allowed in Pride Park. Participants may carry water or an umbrella in their backpacks. Dogs are not prohibited, but due to the noise and hot weather, their visit is not recommended. Your four-legged pet will enjoy the day much more in a different environment. If you do bring your dog to Pride Park, you should keep it on a leash at all times and have its vaccination card with you. *Accessibility of Pride Park** \ Pride Park is easily accessible for people in wheelchairs or parents with strollers. If you are coming with a group, instead of climbing the stairs from Čechův most, use the low-floor tram with a wheelchair platform, which departs from the Čechův most stop and heads to the Letná Pride Park stop (during normal operation Korunovační/Sparta). The tram does not stop at other stops along the route, so you can relax and feel safe. In front of the main Red Stage, there will be a designated area for wheelchair users so that they have a good view of the performers. A wheelchair-accessible toilet is located in Pride Park near the Volunteer Zone and there anybody can ask for a key.
