Practical information

Booking and capacity

Most of the programme needs no booking. The capacity of individual events is limited, though. If there is something you do not want to miss, it is better to come early. Where a booking is needed, you will always find the information with that particular event.

Festival zone

A festival zone will be set up in front of KD Slavie, a place to meet and to get something to eat and drink. You will also find an information stand with a beacon there, where we will help you choose from the programme and answer your questions.

Finding your way

All the participating venues are linked by signposts you can follow to explore the whole cultural quarter. Clearly marked volunteers will be on site, ready to help you with anything. Staff of the cultural institutions and the people at the information stand by KD Slavie will help too.
