\nThe festival will run from Thursday 12 October to Sunday 15 October 2023 from 19:00 to 00:00 every day.<\/strong> The exception this year first children’s installation Signal Playground: Rainbow<\/em>, which is open from 14:00.<\/p>\n
\nTo really enjoy the festival, we recommend Sunday. It tends to be the quietest day. The crowds are thinning out, but the installations are still beautiful. Everywhere is more peaceful and you can plan your visit to the festival more according to the festival map.<\/p>\nMAP & APPLICATION<\/h3>\n
\nJust download our Signal Festival app<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. You can then conveniently view the map on your mobile phone, including the full programme and all the necessary information about the festival. You can find the festival map on the lightpoints at each installation, on the route navigators or on our website in the Programme section.<\/p>\n
\nTogether with our partner Den\u00edk N<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, we are preparing a special edition with a reliable festival guide during the festival. You can get it at all ticket offices at paid installations. You will find the programme and, of course, a printed map. Our volunteer SIGNALISTS<\/strong> in distinctive yellow jackets are also handing it out on the streets.<\/p>\nHOW TO GET TO THE FESTIVAL?<\/h3>\n
\nThe best way to find your way around is on our map. This year the festival will again take place on 2 routes in the city streets – Centrum and Karl\u00edn\/Hole\u0161ovice<\/strong>. New this year are 3 satellite installations, which are located outside the main festival route, their location can also be found in the festival map. As a bonus, you can enjoy a virtual route that offers work in augmented reality.<\/p>\n
\nThe best way to reach us is by public transport. The starting point can be Starom\u011bstsk\u00e1, K\u0159i\u017e\u00edkova or N\u00e1rodn\u00ed t\u0159\u00edda metro stations. We also recommend Karl\u00ednsk\u00e9 n\u00e1m\u011bst\u00ed as a great starting point for the Karl\u00edn\/Hole\u0161ovice route. You can also use the tram stops Karl\u00ednsk\u00e9 n\u00e1m\u011bst\u00ed, N\u00e1m\u011bst\u00ed Republiky, or Starom\u011bstsk\u00e1 as a reference point.<\/p>\n
\nThe best way to enjoy the festival is on your own. You can avoid congested public transport and parking worries. An evening stroll through Prague is a bonus. Together with our partner \u010cEZ Group<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, we are introducing the Help with Movement app<\/strong><\/span><\/a> this year. So, whether you run, cycle, or walk from one installation to another, your activity and energy with the EPP app always generate points for a unique project that \u010cEZ Group will financially support through the \u010cEZ Foundation<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n
\nThe best way to enjoy the festival is on foot or by public transport, but together with Rekola<\/strong><\/span><\/a> we have created a code for cycling festival-goers:<\/p>\nGENERAL INFO<\/h3>\n
\nSignal Satellites<\/strong> are works that work with digital tools, modeling, and construction. These are works outside of the festival itinerary and can be visited at any time. However, during the festival, they will come alive with a special lighting programme. These are also works that fit with this year’s festival theme, which is Ecosystems I: Explore!<\/strong>
\nYou can visit them at any time of the day, but the audio visual screenings start at 19:00 and last until 0:00.<\/p>\n
\nWe recommend a visit to the Signal Playground at the Hybernsk\u00e1 Campus by 3dsense<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, the FLUX 2023<\/em> installation reminiscent of a pulsating stream of data by the Polish studio Ksawery Komputery<\/strong><\/span><\/a> in Invalidovna, a playful projection of emerging ecosystems by Entangled Others<\/strong><\/span><\/a> at the Kooperativa<\/strong><\/span><\/a> headquarters or V\u00e1clav Mlyn\u00e1\u0159<\/strong><\/span><\/a>‘s Puddles<\/em> in the parking lot of the Andaz Prague<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\nFESTIVAL APP & SIGNAL AR<\/h3>\n
\nThe app is available for download on the Apple Store and Google Play<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. We recommend keeping the app up to date, as we are constantly improving it. Follow our social networks and website and subscribe to our newsletter. You’ll know everything in time.<\/p>\n
