There are seven days before the festival opens. It actually starts on Thursday evening. There is Get-Together taking place in National House of Vinohrady where all the ensembles have a first chance to meet and greet and present themselves. An event not to be missed! And the Disco Party on Saturday following the Awards! Again this year We have a very special guest - The Petebox, who had audience admiration last year. Quoting Ed Potton -The Times: "I've been writing about music for ten years but I've never come across anyone quite like Pete. There are one-man bands, but the concept of a one-man recording studio is something else entirely. This is a deeply talented, quietly charismatic man, and a damn nice one to boot. He is destined for great things." So - looking forward to see you all on next Thursday evening!

The venue of young2009prague is the National House of Vinohrady - beautiful neo-renaissance building built in 1894. Together with St. Ludmila church it is one of the dominant buildings on Namesti Miru square. The National House of Vinohrady is located very close to the city centre with an easy access by tram and underground. The most spectacular room in the House is Majakovsky Hall which will host all main festival functions - see more on www.nardum.cz >>
