Program and Schedule: What to Expect in 2026
Across four evenings, Prague comes alive each night from 19:00 to midnight. Most of the program is free and spread across two routes through the city, while Signal INSIDE offers a quieter, more intimate experience indoors. Highlights for 2026 include an immersive journey through space staged in the former X10 theatre and a new video mapping piece on the facade of the Archbishop's Seminary.

Visitor Tips: Travel and Accommodation in Prague
- The city centre is best reached on foot or by metro, and traffic tends to be heavier on festival evenings
- Evenings in Prague can turn cool in October, so a warm jacket is a good idea
- Accommodation near the old town and Vinohrady should be booked early, since the festival draws large crowds
- The free festival app includes an interactive map and helps with planning a route
- Booking Signal INSIDE tickets in advance is recommended, since individual locations have limited capacity
