Little Italy in Prague: pizza, spritz, and September sun at the Market Hall

Summer is not over! On Thursday, September 4, 2025, the Market Square in Prague's Holešovice market will transform into a little Italy for the fourth time. The all-day food festival PIZZA! PIZZA! POP UP will offer pizza in all its forms, a glass of spritz or prosecco, and the atmosphere of an Italian aperitivo, inviting you to stop by, meet friends, and enjoy life outdoors.

New edition

The festival starts at 11:00 and runs until 22:00 in the evening. Visitors can stop by for lunch during the workday, enjoy an afternoon espresso or iced coffee, and stay until the evening for drinks with friends. “PIZZA! PIZZA! POP UP is not just about food. We want to offer people a feeling they know from Italian squares – to have pizza outside under a sunshade, a glass of good wine, get carried away by music, and enjoy time together. It’s the joy of little things that Italians do so well,” says the author of the POP UP concepts Aleš Víšek from the programming department of Holešovická tržnice.

At one place, you will have the opportunity to taste pizza from top pizzaiolos not only from Prague – classics as well as less traditional variants, always with dough they are rightly proud of. And who will serve you their menu this year? Spojka Karlín, Mate’s PIZZA TRUCK, Your PIZZA Therapy, Picoška, Pizza Metro, Il Pane Italian bakery, Ňam Ňam Piaggio, SaSaZu Restaurant, La Mia Spitzeria or South Bohemian Pizza from the yard. Of course, there will also be Chroust Brewery, Bovelii café with its stylish red Piaggio serving coffee and traditional Sicilian arancini, or the incredibly good pastry shop at Moučků with homemade gelato.

The festival is freely accessible and welcomes everyone – whether you just want to pop in for lunch, have a spritz after work, or spend the whole day with the autumn sun and pizza in hand.

When and where:

  • Thursday, September 4, 2025
  • 11:00–22:00
  • Market Square – Holešovická tržnice

IN THE DJA RESERVE, THE SNOW-WHITE GUERÉZY YOUNGSTER IS SEEING FOR THE FIRST TIME.

A baby mantle guereza has been born at Prague Zoo. This is the first addition of these African monkeys in the Dja Reserve pavilion. It is also the first Prague baby of the rarer Kikuyu subspecies, which the zoo has been keeping since the beginning of this year. Unlike its black-and-white parents, the baby is snow-white, a color that will only last for a few weeks. The female Lebamba is a first-time mother, but she has taken on her role well. However, it is important to remember that the baby, whose sex is still unknown, has not yet overcome the critical period. It is already on display in the main exhibition of the pavilion, which, along with the guerezas, is inhabited by a family group of lowland gorillas.

Margot has entered the Guinness World Records. She built the largest hammock in the world on Štvanice Island in Prague.

In Prague, October 2, 2025 - Prague transformed into a holiday paradise for one day yesterday. Although the city has already shifted into the cool autumn, Margot, known for its unmistakable taste of coconut, rum, and chocolate, turned its slogan "This is what a holiday tastes like" into reality. On Prague's Štvanice Island, it set up the largest hammock in the world, covering an area of over 230 m², comparable to a tennis court. Instead of clay courts and forehands, relaxation was served here. The record-breaking hammock was officially confirmed on-site by a Guinness World Records commissioner who traveled all the way from London for the event. Margot thus made its entry into the world record book and brought a holiday atmosphere to Prague like never before. The newly introduced Margot MINI bar then demonstrated that even with the mini version, you can experience the maximum holiday enjoyment.
