Marathon Days

Fanta building

Step into history and elegance at "Fantova budova", the breathtaking Art Nouveau gem of Prague’s Main Train Station. Designed by the visionary architect Josef Fanta and completed in 1909, this masterpiece captures the spirit of early 20th-century Prague — where travel, art, and architecture met in perfect harmony. Behind its grand façade lies a world of intricate stained glass, sculpted details, sweeping arches, and high ceilings that flood the space with daylight. Once a gateway to Europe for travelers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, today Fantova budova shines again after a meticulous restoration, revealing its original beauty and charm. It’s more than just a railway hall — it’s a living piece of Prague’s history. A space where the elegance of the past meets the vibrant energy of the present.

"I´m a huge fan of the Prague Bachata Marathon. The relaxed atmosphere, the kind & friendly participants, the non-stop music, the gathering next to dancing like brunch & dinner, the venue, the music, time for talks, time for more dances in a row, ... It's just a unique and very special concept. There are lots of fantastic festivals, but just once this kind of marathon. Love it! :)"

It is not just about the dance itself, but also the precious connections. 💕 This year was made even more special by the Secret Angel game and beautiful festival bracelets. ✨ All the DJs were amazing. DJ Happy Feet never disappoints. DJ Alejandro and DJ Manuel Citro played some really amazing songs. 🎶"

Locations

Our Venues

Romantic Grotta

The Grotta is the main attraction of the Havlicek Gardens and looks like a fairytale with its peculiar rock formations. The artificial cave features the arcade promenade which is quite unique in Prague. The Grotta dates back to 1871–1888 when it was intricately built by Moritz Grobe, a millionaire. After renovation in 2011, the cave was opened for public.

Fanta building

Step into history and elegance at "Fantova budova", the breathtaking Art Nouveau gem of Prague’s Main Train Station. Designed by the visionary architect Josef Fanta and completed in 1909, this masterpiece captures the spirit of early 20th-century Prague — where travel, art, and architecture met in perfect harmony.

Once a gateway to Europe for travelers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, today Fantova budova shines again after a meticulous restoration, revealing its original beauty and charm.

It’s more than just a railway hall — it’s a living piece of Prague’s history. A space where the elegance of the past meets the vibrant energy of the present.
