Marek Ztracený Letná concert
Overview
In early August 2026, Czech pop-rock star Marek Ztracený announced a massive open-air concert on Prague’s Letná plain, scheduled for 7 August with an expected audience of 70,000-80,000. Organisers detailed extensive transport measures, including a dedicated one-way tram line, increased metro frequencies, and recommended park-and-ride options, as on-site parking would be unavailable. A specially built stage with a hovering piano and a visual show were planned to replace fireworks, and extra police presence and additional public-transport services were arranged.
The concert took place on 7 August as scheduled, drawing an estimated 70,000-80,000 spectators. Guest performers such as Marta Jandová and Petr Čtvrtníček joined Ztracený for a two-hour set of his biggest hits. The planned fireworks display was cancelled for safety and animal-welfare reasons. Police reiterated advice to avoid driving into the city centre, urging use of peripheral park-and-ride facilities and a special tram line 44 running at five-minute intervals. The city’s public-transport operator increased tram and metro services, and no major incidents were reported during the event.
Following the concert, public attention turned to the appearance of actor and dancer Richard Genzer, who drew notice for a significant physical transformation. The event also drew various public figures; while Libor Bouček praised the musical success and sold-out venue, Leoš Mareš used his attendance to promote a future concert for Adam Ďurica scheduled for 2028.
