Krampus Show returns to Prague's Výstaviště on 21 November 2026

On Saturday 21 November 2026, Prague's Výstaviště hosts its Krampus Show, when more than 200 Krampus figures from Czech and Austrian groups parade in front of the venue's newly renovated Industrial Palace (Průmyslový palác). Prague City Tourism's official events calendar and Výstaviště Praha's own 2026 events announcement both list the date and venue. The programme splits into an afternoon Family Show and a more intense Night Show after dark.

What it means for your trip

• Saturday 21 November 2026 is the only date for this year's show, at Výstaviště Praha in Holešovice, in front of the newly renovated Industrial Palace.
• More than 200 Krampus figures from Czech and Austrian groups take part, according to Prague City Tourism.
• The programme has two parts: an afternoon Family Show aimed at children, and a more intense Night Show after dark for older visitors.
• It is a single-day event, not a market or exhibition running for weeks, so Saturday 21 November is the date to plan around.
• Combine it with the Christmas markets, which open in Prague from 28 November 2026.
