Troja festival Prague

This summer, from June 19 to 23, Troja Festival 2025 will transform Prague-Troja into a celebration of classical music and storytelling, all set in some of the city’s most atmospheric locations.

With the theme “Myths and Legends,” this year’s festival invites audiences to experience the timeless connection between music and ancient tales.

What sets Troja Festival apart is its unique commitment to breaking free from traditional concert halls. Instead, the performances will unfold in natural and historical spaces that echo the stories being told — from the grandeur of Troja Chateau and the lush Botanical Garden, to the intriguing Old Wastewater Treatment Plant in Bubeneč and even the wild beauty of Prague Zoo.

Over five days and across five remarkable venues, the festival will present chamber music inspired by heroic epics, fairy tales, and mythical creatures — all performed by leading Czech and international artists. The lineup includes compositions by Beethoven, Schubert, Ravel, Debussy, Dvořák, and many more.
