Accessibility of the festival

The Prague Pride Festival aims to be as open and accessible as possible to everyone, without exception. This is our vision, and we do our best to fulfill it. Of course, it’s easier said than done. We face limitations such as the inaccessibility of historic buildings, the financial demands of translations, and the staffing capacity required to provide the services we want to offer. Still, accessibility is always on our minds, and we continuously strive to improve it.

We have adapted the festival website so that it is accessible to people with visual impairments. Screen reader applications can read our articles as well as the full festival programme.

Café Dorado Kinský is fully wheelchair accessible, including an accessible toilet. There are a few steps leading to the terrace, but wheelchair users can use an alternative entrance that is fully accessible. Staff will be happy to assist.

Both the café and cinema spaces at Edison Filmhub are accessible. Please use the side entrance from Jeruzalémská Street. An accessible toilet is available.

The French Institute building is accessible via an elevator, and accessible toilets are available.

The route of this year’s parade is changing, but we certainly won’t miss out on a beautiful walk through the historic heart of Prague. As in previous years, the parade will set off from the lower end of Wenceslas Square and continue along Na Příkopě and Celetná streets, passing through Old Town Square and into Pařížská Street. From there, the route will turn onto Dvořák Embankment and follow the river via Ludvík Svoboda Embankment, continuing across Hlávka Bridge to Štvanice Island. The route is slightly longer than in previous years, but there is one welcome change: no more climbing the stairs up to Letná. The parade route consists of asphalt surfaces and historic cobblestones.

Štvanice Island is accessible via barrier-free routes. From the HolKa footbridge, there is a gradual ramp, and from the Hlávkův most tram stop, you can use an elevator. The island has recently been revitalized—main paths are paved or otherwise reinforced, making them suitable for wheelchairs and strollers. An accessible toilet will be available.

Střelecký Island is accessible via an elevator. Accessible toilets are also available in the bridge pillar (paid).

Unfortunately, the historic building of the Scout Institute – Rybárna is not wheelchair accessible.
