Neighbourhood street festival

ZažítMěstoJinak

Saturday 19 September 2026 Urxova Street

For one day we close Urxova Street to cars and open it to people. Come, meet your neighbours and see Karlín differently.

What is going on

Zažít město jinak

The biggest neighbourhood festival in Czechia. For one day, dozens of streets across the country close to traffic and turn into open‑air living rooms — no big stage, just lots of small ideas from the people who live here.

The street blooms

For one day Urxova Street takes a breath — instead of cars it comes alive with local crafts, artists, homemade treats and joy.

Building a playground and sandpit

It’s up to us

Creative workshops, plant swaps, obstacle courses… Whatever we dream up, we build together. The sky’s the limit.

Insect hotel

Room for everyone

Whether you want to dance, create, meet the locals or just sit back and grill a sausage. Everyone fits in, and everyone’s welcome.

The festival is all of us

Get involved

Zažít město jinak in Karlín is not run by paid pros. It is made by people from Karlín, for free, in their spare time. All you need is an idea — we will help with the rest.

For volunteers

Become a host

Take a corner of the festival under your wing. Whether you have your own idea and need a hand, or you’re just looking for a way to help — every head and pair of hands counts.
