Ukraine through the eyes of natural scientists
For more than nine months now, we have been watching the impact of Russia's aggression in Ukraine. The military conflict has brought with it not only immeasurable human suffering and humanitarian catastrophe, but also environmental impacts - widespread environmental contamination, damage to terrain and ecosystems, and devastation of resources.
That is why the Ministry of the Environment has joined with the Charity of the Czech Republic to set up a collection for post-war environmental restoration in Ukraine and installed the exhibition "Ukraine through the eyes of natural scientists", which you can see in front of the KCP building (near the Vyšehrad Business Centre) until mid-December.

Prague Congress Centre pulls back covide loss and proves its strategic importance for Prague
The coronavirus pandemic has significantly affected the functioning of the Prague Congress Centre (PCC) in 2021. This represents an increase of 11% compared to the previous year. The year 2021 was a record year for PCC in terms of the number of visitors, thanks to the location of the Metropolitan Vaccination Centre of the Capital City of Prague.

The Wall in concert - change of date
Dear fans, we are sorry to inform you that the concert has been moved to February 11, 2023. Please read the note of the organizer of the concert.
"Dear Audience, we were happy to welcome you back to our concerts after 2 years of Covid to experience great entertainment again with all our artists we have signed for you.
Unfortunately, we have to postpone the concerts due to regular covid infection cases in the crew and orchestra and the resulting isolation conditions. We can now no longer guarantee that you will be able to enjoy our full program without compromises.
Therefore we postpone the concert "THE WALL IN CONCERT" at 20h in Prague Congress Center with a heavy heart, but we are already looking forward to the carefree enjoyment in the future without mask and pandemic - and hopefully our regular orchestras, which also had to be replaced due to Corona as well as the war in Ukraine. We assume that from soon on all concerts will be possible again completely and without restrictions - and we will be able to welcome you then with joy! The new date is Saturday, Feb.11th, 2023 with the same times."

The course of congresses at the PCC in regards to the refugee centre operated at the PCC
We are proud to help in the current crisis. The Help Centre for Ukrainian Refugees in Prague has been moved to our venue. The Help Centre is limited mainly to the ground floor and depending on the current needs, it also uses the Congress Hall. We are in close contact with the organizers of events held in the next two months at the Prague Congress Centre and we solve together all aspects of hosting those events.
The PCC building has a great disposition for holding various events at the same time and the experienced PCC team excels in solving difficult situations. The PCC building has 11 entrances, and the building can be divided into 3 separate parts - Congress, Southern and Forum - so there is no interaction between participants of events held in different parts of the building.
If any changes occur, we will inform about it on our web.

2019 Little Flashback
The end of one year and the beginning of another deserves at least a small recap. To start with, the Prague Congress Centre had a very successful year. In its majestic premises took place numerous major congresses that organizer and visitors will remember for a long time. The year began with the European Congress of Haemophilia and Associated Disorders (EAHAD 2019) with a record number of delegates, followed by the congress of the European Academy of Sports Science with the traditional Saltin run to honor this pioneer of sports physiology. And literally life-saving annual European Congress for Emergency Medicine (EUSEM 2019) took place at the PCC. But it was not just a year of major congresses.
PCC is also a centre of cultural events. The building was shuddered with laughter caused by sophisticated humor of Jimm Jefferies, the Congress Hall turned into the Biggest Swan Lake in the world with the Moscow Ballet, our speakers were honored to spread divine voices of IL DIVO group, the singer and composer David Deyl celebrated 10th anniversary on the scene in the Congress Hall and beautiful talented Celtic Women brought the Celtic spirit onto our stage. But that is not all. We also welcomed book lovers during Humbook festival and just before Christmas we became a “window“ for Top designers during the prestigious Czech Design Week. We look forward to new challenges, many interesting artists and important congresses. We love our mission!

The most generous Giving Tuesday ever
This year’s Giving Tuesday was so far the most generous in its history and a partial result of the collection in the Prague Congress Centre is a proof that helping others is contagious. Every second employee of the PCC was involved with total amount of 146 pieces of durable food, hygiene items being collected. The collection was handed over to representatives of the Czech Federation of Food Banks. It will be used in the Central Bohemia region in orphanages, asylum houses for women and day care centres for seniors. We are happy that we gave a hand to such an amazing result.

Community fridge at the PCC
Prague Congress Center launched a community fridge project in cooperation with the main catering partner Zátiší Catering to support the concept of sustainability and reduce the volume of bio-waste. Despite of careful planning to avoid excess food not everything gets consumed at congresses and for these cases of properly preserved food there is a community fridge. All employees of the PCC and Zátiší Catering can help themselves to a snack. We believe that sharing a meal is an important part of team-building, employees can chat and at the same time they can think about how become sustainable at home - as the infographic on the refrigerator door encourages them. This way, not only the idea of zero-waste is supported but the work of the chefs won’t go down the drain.

Exhibition of Secondary Schools in the Prague Congress Centre
The Prague Congress Center held the Schola Pargensis exhibition, which is intended especially for the ninth-grade students of primary schools, their parents and other students interested in studying at secondary schools of all types. The first year of the exhibition took place in 1996 and until 2002 Schola Pragensis was organized in the last week of March at the time of J. A. Comenius anniversary. The schools established by the City of Prague and other entities traditionally present not only their facilities, but also the results of their work, both in the pedagogical field and in the areas of after school activities. Every year, the exhibition provides schoolchildren of the last year of basic schools with a comprehensive picture of education plans at each particular school and also their subsequent chances on the labour market. Potential prospective students at a particular school can actually see what the school offers and have the opportunity to compare with other schools. The general public can acquire a complex picture of possibilities in the region of Prague. This year's motto was "Become the director of your life" and the poster was created by the winner of the competition for the best graphic design Pavel Kuja, who is a student at the Secondary School of Design and Art, Book Culture and Economics, and who won over another 23 designs.
Marketing Festival
The 5th Marketing Festival is held at the Prague Congress Center. The best speakers, innovative ideas, newly built program, but also a great environment and excellent catering is what its founder finds as a MUST.
"Five years ago, I finally realized that there's something wrong with marketing conferences: they simply don't offer value that's on par with the ticket price. So I took a risk and decided to bring world-class know-how to the Czech Republic while trying to avoid all the annoyances of the industry's leading conferences., "says the founder of the festival.

Lara Fabian Camouflage Tour
Lara Fabian goes on a world tour and one stop will be the Prague Congress Centre. The new Lara Fabian tour called Camouflage will be based on her English repertoire. Lara Fabian’s first English album was released in the USA in 1999 (Sony Music). The eponymous album, written and produced by renowned producers, such as Glen Ballard and Walter Afanasieff, included several titles reaching high positions in the charts. The title “I will love again”, became a # 1 Billboard Hot Dance Chart hit. Other titles, such as “Adagio”, “Love by Grace”, and “Broken Vow” became hits in various countries, and have been covered since by many artists (Barbra Streisand, Josh Groban). Lara’s initial international success was followed by the release of a second English album, “A wonderful life” in 2004, including titles such as “Review my kisses”, written by Desmond Child, “I guess I loved you” and “No big deal”. The dance –pop song “I am who I am”, remixed by Hex Hector became an underground club hit. The tour will bring the new music of Lara from Camouflage, together with her international hits.

Concert of Evanescence
In March, the PCC will welcome the famous music group Evanescence. Double Grammy Award holders will perform with the Symphony Orchestra and will introduce their forthcoming album Synthesis, which will include the most popular songs in new arrangements. Synthesis is the fourth studio album released by the band. In addition to older favourites, it contains two entirely new songs that Evanescence will present on the tour with the orchestra. The recording was produced by the drummer Will Hunt and composer David Campbell, known for working with Justin Timberlake, Muse, Adele, Michael Jackson and others. “This is a total passion project for me. There are so many layers in our music, underneath the huge drums and guitars,” explains Amy Lee of Evanescence. “I’ve always wanted to shine a light on some of the gorgeous David Campbell arrangements and programming elements in our songs, and that idea snowballed into completely re-doing them with full orchestra, not just strings, elaborate programming and experimentation. This will be our first-time touring with orchestra and I’m so excited to perform this way-really focus on the vocals, and the emotion and the story we’ve built over the years. This project really means a lot to me. Underneath the sound of drums and guitars, there are innumerable layers in our music, says singer Amy Lee.

We attended an associations evening through ICCA and hosted a breakfast on 12.10. So far, we received at least 3 requests.
