Prague Proms is a music festival that takes place every summer/autumn in Prague. It started in 2005 and is inspired by the famous Proms concerts in the United Kingdom. It might be hard to compare it with the concerts in London, but it is still a fantastic event for those in love with music in the Czech Republic.
The first Prague Proms festival was held in 2005 and it was organized by the Czech National Symphony Orchestra (CNSO) to bring classical music to a wider audience. They have definitely succeeded with that goals and over the years, the festival has grown in popularity and size. It now features a variety of music, including classical, jazz, and film music.
The concerts are arranged throughout the city of Prague, but some of the most famous concert venues are the Municipal House and the Smetana Hall.
