Gala dinner

Gala Dinner Zofin Palace

12th of September 2025

Zofin Palace, a Neo-Renaissance Palace built in 1835-1837 is located on the Slovansky Island, an island of 250 metres long and 100 metres wide.

The main hall, ideal for concerts and balls, immediately became a very important and attractive centre of cultural and social life, especially in the second half of the 19th century. Prague applauded famous composers and musicians like B. Smetana, A. Dvorak, H. Berlioz, F. Liszt, R. Wagner, and others here. In November 1882 Bedřich Smetana’s famous cycle of symphonic poems, My Country, was premiered here for the first time.

Following the general reconstruction and reopening in 1994, Zofin Palace, quickly became one of the most beautiful and popular locations in the city. It provides an exclusive environment for concerts, balls, congresses, gala receptions, and various Prague events.

As it is located on an island, it would not be appropriate to list this particular Prague venue as close to the water, but rather it would be more accurate to say that it is actually on the water.

We’re excited to share that the ESOPRS 2025 Afterparty will now take place at Žofín Palace – the same stunning venue as the Gala Dinner – and will be complimentary for all attendees!

Join us for a memorable evening in Prague, complete with a DJ, a fully stocked bar, and plenty of space to dance the night away. We can’t wait to celebrate with you! ​
