BARS & PUBS | DRINKING ON THE STREETS
Some basic Czech pubs are open to walk-in trade, but the best bars sell tickets for New Year's Eve.
You normally need to visit the bars in person in the days leading up to NYE to buy them.
If you decide to pub crawl and chance on finding pubs that will let you in, make sure you head for the river or a main square at midnight to watch the fireworks.
If you wish to drink on the streets, which is allowed, you can buy beer and wine from small shops as well as the Christmas markets (the markets stay open until around 10pm).
CLUBS
All clubs in Prague sell tickets for New Year's Eve. You normally need to visit the clubs in person in the days leading up to NYE to buy them.
Before midnight, most clubs will not let you in without a pre-bought ticket.
After midnight, some clubs sell tickets on the door. Be aware that the policy is one-in, one-out, so queues can be lengthy.
ADVANCE TICKETS
Where clubs do sell tickets further in advance, Prague Experience will list the best ones. We ensure venues are decorated for a New Year's Eve party. They will have DJs or live bands, and dance floors. Tickets often include food. Some club and party tickets are on sale now:

| FIREWORKS |
| Where to watch the fireworks:
1. RIVER
River Cruises
Boats congregate at Charles Bridge. Enjoy terrific views of the fireworks from inside the boats and out on deck.
River Restaurants
Riverside restaurants on both sides of the river offer good views of the fireworks.
Hillside Restaurants
Hillside restaurants in the Lesser Town (on Petřín Hill and near Prague Castle) offer views from above of the fireworks.
Charles Bridge & Streets Nearby
Stand on Charles Bridge or in the streets by the river in the Old Town. | | 2. MAIN SQUARES
Traditionally, the Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square are the most hair-raising places in Prague to watch the fireworks.
With so many people, and fireworks all around, the atmosphere is electric. Recent changes to the law may dampen this, but it should still be a good show. | | 3. PRIVATE FIREWORKS
One restaurant puts on its own fireworks display:
Czech Night. Another has its own bonfire: Nebozizek | | | |
