Palladium – the heart of shopping and experiences in Prague

Palladium – the heart of shopping and experiences in Prague

Just a few steps from the Old Town Square and the Powder Tower stands Palladium – the largest shopping center in the historic center of Prague. It offers nearly 200 shops, restaurants, and cafes, and for visitors, it is one of the must-visit stops while wandering around Prague.

New edition

Thanks to its history and the sensitive connection between historic buildings and modern architecture, Palladium creates a unique atmosphere, making it an attractive destination for visitors from home and abroad, and turning shopping into a true experience. This is also why Palladium has repeatedly received the prestigious Superbrands award in 2023, 2024, and 2025 – a confirmation that it is a brand loved by Czechs.

A history that breathes at every step

The place where Palladium stands today has roots dating back to the 12th century. Remnants of Romanesque palaces can still be seen today – for example, in the Luxor bookstore. In the 18th century, a large military complex was established here, featuring a unique riding school where Josef Kajetán Tyl composed the Czech national anthem during his service in the army.

The current building welcomes visitors not only with stories from the past but also with modern design. The highlight of the entrance from Republic Square is a light installation by Preciosa, made up of more than 500 glass tubes, which creates an original light show at every moment.

New offerings

Palladium constantly updates its portfolio to keep pace with current trends. Recently, new brands such as Converse, Medicine, Columbia, Kara, Etam, Urban Brands, and Humanic have opened. Sweet lovers will be pleased with Prague Chocolate Steiner & Kovarik.

Established brands are also modernizing – for example, C&A, Reserved, Mango, Guess, Ecco, L'Occitane, Douglas, Kratochvílovci, and Oxalis have recently introduced new concepts.

After shopping, a rest is welcome – whether in a restaurant offering Indian, Thai, or Czech cuisine, in a Neapolitan pizzeria, or while enjoying coffee and sweet dessert. Quick snacks and specialties like fresh waffles, macarons, or trdelník are also available.

Fun for kids and peace for parents

An original children's corner with colorful houses transforms play into an adventure – children can become a veterinarian, hairdresser, or little beautician here. There is also a long slide and a ball pit for the youngest. Meanwhile, parents can enjoy a moment of peace in the adjacent café.

Typical moments of Czech Christmas that we cannot imagine the holidays without. What are the unchanging moments of Czech Christmas?

Every year we promise that this time we will take it easy, without rushing and without unnecessary sweets. And every year we end up the same way – we anxiously wait for the golden pig, nibble on potato salad already at lunch, and secretly hope that the breaded carp will survive until the evening. Some moments of Czech Christmas simply do not change – and perhaps that is exactly why we love them so much.

THE UNIVERSE OF JOHN WILLIAMS

The World Christmas Concert of the film music genius John Williams returns to the Czech Republic after last year's success! Original compositions created for the Indiana Jones and Harry Potter films will once again resonate in Prague's O2 Universe.

The female band Vesna announced their dream concert at Fórum Karlín, which will take place on October 22, 2026.

Vesna recently held their last concert and announced to fans that they will not be performing in Prague for at least a year. The reason for this break is the preparation for their largest concert yet at Forum Karlín. The all-female band Vesna, which gained international fame with the Eurovision hit "My Sister's Crown" and won the hearts of fans in the Czech Republic with the single "Moravo," has decided to take another milestone in their career. This decision was primarily driven by fans, who sold out the nationwide tour "Muzika Slavica" two times in a row.

The light exhibition Heart of Europe has already transformed the Yellow Spa into a magical winter area.

Winter evenings during Advent can take on a calmer form in Prague; just head to the banks of the Vltava River. The Yellow Spa will transform into a light complex every day after dark until January 31, 2026. Thanks to its location away from the crowds, it offers a pleasant space for walks and relaxation. The exhibition Heart of Europe creates an environment where entertainment, education, and the picturesque panorama of Prague and Vyšehrad meet.
