If you’re pondering an evening out in Prague that combines great music, relaxed vibes, and some seriously good drinks, the Wednesday Night Live Music with Cocktails experience might be worth considering. While we haven’t done this specific tour ourselves, the reviews and details suggest it’s a vibe that’s perfect for those looking for a casual, intimate night in the city’s lively core.
What truly stands out about this experience is the chance to enjoy local acoustic talent in a setting that’s both stylish and welcoming. Plus, the free cocktail of your choice adds a little extra fun and value, making it more than just a night of listening. That said, it’s worth mentioning that the venue’s small size could be a tight squeeze, especially if you’re hoping for a spacious evening.

The Experience in Detail

Starting at the lively Kontakt bar, you’ll find yourself in a spot that’s been rated highly for its cool, unpretentious atmosphere. This isn’t a sprawling concert hall; it’s a small, welcoming space that’s perfect for those who appreciate a more personal, bar-centric experience. Once you arrive, showing your voucher to the bartender will secure your seat, giving you a good view of the stage where local acoustic performers take the spotlight.
The music kicks off at 10:30 pm, but the bar encourages guests to come earlier—around 9 or 9:30 pm—to settle in with drinks and soak up the environment. The bar’s reputation as Prague’s highest-rated cocktail lounge signals that you’re in for some quality sips. The award-winning cocktail menu offers a variety of options, and your included drink will likely be more than enough to kick off the night.
According to reviews, the small size of the bar can be a double-edged sword. One reviewer, Luca, mentioned, “The bar is very small and only has space for a few people. We had trouble getting a seat despite having booked, but the atmosphere and drinks as well as the live music were great!” This highlights the importance of arriving early or being prepared for a bit of a crowd. On the flip side, Roberta found the intimate environment “like sitting around with some mates and having a Margarita,” which captures the friendly, cozy vibe.
The live music is acoustic, featuring local talents whose performances are described as fresh and lively. The focus on local musicians means you’re likely to encounter a more authentic and spirited sound, rather than overly polished mainstream acts. Guests seem to appreciate the relaxed, friendly environment—it’s almost like hanging out with friends at a bar with a great soundtrack.

The Value and Practicalities
The ticket price includes a reserved seat with a good view and your free cocktail. When considering value, this arrangement offers a lot: a guaranteed spot, a quality drink, and a chance to enjoy local music in a top-rated bar. For around the cost of a couple of cocktails elsewhere, you’re getting a three-hour experience that blends culture, music, and drinks.
Timing wise, the event lasts about three hours, starting at 10:30 pm. This makes it a perfect late-evening activity—ideal if you’re already exploring Prague and want a relaxed, musical wind-down without missing your bedtime.
Who Will Love This Experience?

This tour is best suited for couples or friends seeking an authentic Prague night out that combines music, drinks, and local culture. It’s perfect if you enjoy intimate venues and don’t mind the small space. If you’re after a lively concert with lots of room to dance or a big crowd, you might find this too cozy or subdued. On the other hand, if you love discovering local talent and prefer a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, this experience will likely hit the spot.
It’s also an excellent choice for date nights—the setting lends itself to conversation and closeness over quality drinks and music. Travelers who appreciate a good cocktail menu and value a spot’s reputation (since this bar is highly rated) will get a lot out of the experience.
The Bottom Line

All in all, Wednesday Night Live Music with Cocktails offers a charming, intimate way to spend your evening in Prague’s lively Old Town. Its focus on local acoustic acts and excellent cocktails makes it more than just a bar night—it’s a chance to feel the city’s pulse in a relaxed setting. The small size might be a challenge if you prefer spacious venues, but for those craving authentic, close-up performances with quality drinks, this is a solid pick.
If you’re the type of traveler who loves uncovering local gems and enjoys a mellow vibe, this experience will likely become a memorable part of your Prague trip. Just plan to arrive early to secure a good seat and soak up the atmosphere.
