Best movies, exhibitions & events in Prague – July & August 2026 guide

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY

Four years have passed since the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, and Peter Parker is now a grown man living in complete isolation after voluntarily erasing himself from the lives and memories of those closest to him.

As New York's full-time protector, he continues to fight crime in a city that no longer knows his name. But as the demands placed upon him grow ever greater, the mounting pressure triggers a shocking physical transformation that threatens his very existence.

At the same time, a mysterious new pattern of criminal activity gives rise to one of the most powerful threats Spider-Man has ever faced.

The film is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, best known for Marvel's Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, who brings a more mature and grounded tone to Peter Parker's next chapter. We already know that Hulk, Punisher, and Scorpion will all play key roles in the story, while Marvel and Sony are undoubtedly keeping a few major surprises hidden until audiences finally see the film in cinemas.

ICE CREAM MAN

The quiet town of Bayleen Bay is thrown into chaos when a mysterious ice cream man begins handing out frozen treats to local children.

What initially seems like an innocent summer delight soon turns into a nightmare. After eating the ice cream, the children become increasingly aggressive, and the town slowly descends into violence, panic, and madness.

And this time, the warnings are no mere marketing gimmick. Director Eli Roth (Thanksgiving) unleashes a full-blown gorefest packed with outrageous carnage, stomach-churning practical effects, and pitch-black humour.

Designed for horror fans with strong stomachs, the film promises a wildly excessive and unapologetically gruesome ride that pushes its twisted premise to the limit.

Horror, US, 2026
Director: Eli Roth
Stars: Ari Millen, Benjamin Byron Davis, Karen Cliche, Sarah Abbott, Charlie Storey, Snoop Dogg, Lochlan Miller, Darrin Baker

SUPER TROOPERS 3

The five wildly unconventional state troopers return for another installment of the cult comedy franchise.

When Farva becomes engaged to Thorny's sister and the extravagant celebrations spiral out of control, the Super Troopers find themselves caught between family drama and professional chaos.

While Thorny tries to stop the unexpected relationship, the rest of the team become entangled in an investigation involving a dangerous new drug gang. Forced to balance police work, wedding preparations, and their trademark misadventures, the troopers once again prove that maintaining order has never been their strongest skill.

As always, chaos is never far behind.

EVIL DEAD: BURNED ALIVE

Evil Dead: Burned Alive delivers the most brutal and terrifying experience yet in the legendary Evil Dead franchise, unleashing a brand-new chapter of bloody carnage and demonic chaos.

The story follows the grieving Alice (Souheila Yacoub), who, after the loss of her husband, seeks comfort with her relatives at their remote family home. But as is often the case in the Evil Dead universe, her arrival sets off a chain of horrifying events when a blood-thirsty force is accidentally unleashed from an ancient book.

What begins as a family gathering quickly descends into a relentless nightmare of possession, violence, and demonic terror.

THE PŘEMYSLIDS: A RULING DYNASTY AND ITS AGE

The exhibition "The Přemyslids. A Ruling Dynasty and Its Age" presents the dynasty that transformed Bohemia into a kingdom and firmly established it as part of Europe.

Held in the Historical Building of the National Museum, it features more than 900 exhibits, including royal burial treasures, rare textiles, reliquaries, and the unique royal crown from Slezská Středa.

Visitors will discover the power, faith, and daily life of the Přemyslids through the stories of Saint Wenceslas, Saint Ludmila, and the assassination of Wenceslas III, which ended the dynasty but not the Czech Kingdom.

MEMORY OF TOUCH: CHAPTER I

Memory of Touch is the first major exhibition dedicated to the Kunsthalle Praha Collection, unfolding across two successive chapters.

Bringing together historical, post-war, and contemporary works, it creates a dialogue between collection highlights and invited Czech artists. Conceived as a living and evolving entity, the collection becomes a space for new connections and interpretations.

At a time when contemporary culture often values control, certainty, and polished surfaces, the exhibition offers a quieter perspective. Through works embracing fragility, vulnerability, and imperfection, Memory of Touch invites visitors to reflect on resilience and the value of what remains deeply human.
