Prokop Mining Fair

The beginning of the summer holidays belongs to the Prokopská pilgrimage in Březové Hory. On the weekend of 5th and 6th July, its 36th continuation is planned. You can look forward to stalls, creative workshops, fairground attractions, parades and a musical programme on two stages on the J. A. Alice Square in the Marie Mine area. This year there will be a change - Saturday's parade will not leave from T. G. Masaryk Square, but from 17 November Square.

Saturday's Březohorská festival will start at J. A. Alis Square at 14.00. The stage will be filled with artistic groups and local organizations - Kamýček, Rebels Příbram, Aerobik PB, Jan Hasman and Duellanti, Bacha Baby, Sokol Březové Hory and SDH Březové Hory. Music production will be provided by the bands Schunky, Roofers, One Taste and Malibu. Bonanza and ČD Band will play at the Marie Mine.

The Prokopská pilgrimage itself falls on Sunday 6 July, when the so-called mining parade will arrive at Březové Hory. The cultural programme, organised by the Mining Museum Příbram, will start in the area of the Ševčinský Mine at 14.00. As on Saturday, there will be stalls and activities for young and old visitors. The main theme will be the 150th anniversary of the world's first time reaching a depth of 1,000 metres with the help of a single mining rope in the Vojtěch mine in 1875. The Tomáš Bílek Theatre and the Adorea Swordsmanship Society will perform.
