The "city of a hundred spires" is the perfect setting for a holiday parade. Prague's festive holiday markets, towering turrets, sky-scraping spires and old world architecture provide a dramatic backdrop for your music students as they take to the streets to entertain tourists and locals with music to ring in the holiday season. The Prague Christmas Parade is a European-style parade where spectators often fall in step behind the procession with applause and merriment.

Prague is one of Europe's most picturesque cities in a modern nation built on the ancient lands of Bohemia and Moravia. The Czech Republic is a worthy destination itself, and its proximity to nearby Germany and Austria provide countless opportunities for memorable custom itineraries. This is the land of fairy-tale castles, deep forests and medieval villages. This is the land of beauty that inspired Gustav Mahler and Antonin Dvorak.

The parade organizers include Gateway Music Festivals & Tours, which has more than 30 years of experience organizing parades and music tours around the world.

A band's visit to the Czech Republic for the Prague Christmas Parade provides additional opportunities for performances and educational tours. Highlights of the itinerary could include:
• Prague Castle: What's a trip to a fairy tale city without a stop at the world's largest castle? Visit famed St. Vitus Cathedral, plus courtyards and museums galore, all on the grounds of Prague Castle which was the seat of Czech kings, emperors, and presidents for more than a millennium.
• Vltava River Cruise: The Vltava River sweeps through Prague so beautifully it inspired Bedrich Smetana's composition "Vltava." The boat ride around the Golden City takes you past St. Agnes Monastery, the Charles Bridge, and the beautiful Prague Castle.
