Rock Café

Prague


Not to be confused with the Hard Rock Café, this multifunction club is the offspring of the influential Nový Horizont art movement of the 1990s. It sports a stage for DJs, comedians and live rock bands, a funkily decorated ‘rock cafe’, cinema, theatre, art gallery and merch shop.

Live bands are mostly local, ranging from nu-metal to folk rock to Doors and Sex Pistols tribute bands. Music from around 8pm.
