My interest is visiting as many local festivals [folk dancing + polkas & waltzes] as possible. Is there a best time of year to visit? Is there a place to view all of the festivals held? I thought I posted this a week or so ago, but can't find the post. dekuji, Vasek [James Janousek 2nd generation]
Could you please get in touch with me? I am looking for Janousek's family history and am wondering if you are a piece to my puzzle. Thank you.
I haven't actually found any, James. The festivals and outdoor concerts we have been to in and around Prague have been modern popular music rather than folk. I suspect that the ones there are will be mainly in Moravia or certainly well out of Prague. I am sure there are some native Czechs here who will know.
There are many folk festivals throughout Czech and Moravia through the summer. You can quiet often find them by looking on Regional or City web pages. If you goolgle folk festival cz you will find some.
I went to Prague in summer time and in winter. most of the activities held in the summer. try to go to http://www.pragueexperience.com/sightseeing/entertainment_excursions.asp
