Program and Schedule: What to Expect in Prague
Over the course of about a week, concerts and events take place across several Prague venues, including Jazz Dock, SaSaZu, La Fabrika and the Výstaviště Praha exhibition grounds. The undisputed highlight is the traditional parade on the last Friday of the festival, when musicians and dance groups march through the historic center together with the public. Much of the accompanying program, including the parade and the children's day, is free to attend. The full 2027 program from organizers Slovo 21 and Studio Production Saga will be published in spring.

Many parts of the Khamoro Festival, such as the street parade and the children's day, are entirely free. Individual club concerts at venues like Jazz Dock or SaSaZu are ticketed, with recent editions priced roughly between 8 and 25 euros per concert.

Visitor Tips: Travel and Accommodation in Prague
- Venues are spread across the city, so a Prague public transport ticket makes moving between events much easier
- Late May usually brings mild to warm spring weather to Prague, though it is worth packing an umbrella
- Since the festival overlaps with other cultural events in Prague in May, booking accommodation early is advisable
- For the parade through the old town, a spot along the route from Wenceslas Square to Old Town Square offers the best view
- Tickets for concerts by well known names in the line up tend to sell out, so buying early is recommended
