All wine lovers should mark their calendars for the weekend of 14 and 15 September. During this time, one of Prague's oldest vineyards will come alive with a vibrant harvest celebration.
The festive atmosphere will be enriched by live music and excellent food. Most importantly, the event will showcase the finest wines from Bohemian and Moravian winemakers, along with a bounty of local produce. No true Czech grape harvest celebration would be complete without the traditional burčák, a unique young wine. Join us for an unforgettable wine festival with stunning views of the Prague skyline.
Due to the expected weather, we plan to expand and build a large number of covered places for visitors, in the form of several large-capacity tents for hundreds of visitors and other covered places throughout the Ornamental Garden. Also in the exhibition hall and the covered terrace in front of it there will be a space for a large number of visitors to the event with tables and seating along with the mentioned program.
