Witches in Ladronka
April 2009 - On April 30th at 3 p.m. the largest number of witches and wizards will land in Prague Ladronka. This event that goes beyond all you have ever thought about the symbolic straw witch burning is being held for the fourth time by the Dejvice town hall. And of course, the entrance is free!

Besides the traditional fire and witch burning celebration there will be many fun contests prepared for both big and small visitors both big and small such as ‘Miss Witch’, ‘Witch on the skates’, or ‘Make your own witch’. Among other workshops there will be a witch beauty parlor, art workshop and many others. Like in previous years visitors can get a free photo, learn some witch dance moves in a dancing school and burn some extra energy in a Nintendo play tent. On top of all the mentioned unusual activities there will also be enough space for the traditional fire, sausage grilling and guitar songs.
The late afternoon peak of the program will be a concert of the legendary rock group Hudba Praha , performance of stars of the Kladivo na čarodějnice musical, and a comedy show produced by HBO Na stojáka. One of the favorite parts of this event is breaking ‘the witch records’. ‘
This year we will try to make the larges witch broom. All the Prague people can help us to get all the needed material for it. Therefore we urge everybody not to throw away the Easter whiph, but hand it over at info places of Prague 6.
The first one thousand of them will get a Petrin cake in exchange’, people from the Dejvice town hall promise.
