THE WEEK BEFORE FRISBEER
If you arrive to Prague earlier than on Friday and you are interested in jamming, sightseeing or meeting other people who are already in Prague, Irena is your person! Contact her on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/irena.kulisanova?fref=ts) or on her cellphone (+ 420 728 861 934). Rumor is that there will be an outdoor jam at National Theatre on Thursday afternoon.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION!
When you arrive to Prague (and BEFORE you go to jam/dinner) please go directly to the apartments and register there - pay for your stay and get the keys. You need to register on the reception before 20:00. If won't be able to make it, please call + 420 724 372 471. We have been asked for this by the apartment management so please respect it.

As usually, jamming action starts on Friday. We are going to start with and outdoor jam between 3 and 4 PM at the National Theatre jamspot. Around 6:30 we are going to move to the gym on Náměstí Jiřího z Lobkovic (inflated tennis court - same as last year).

HOW TO GET AROUND PRAGUE
In Prague there is a thick network of public transport so you can get around quite easily. The tickets are valid for all kinds of transport (metro, trams, buses) and you can transfer with them. You can get them in news-stands and similar shops, from the machines inside the metro (always above the escalators) or at the info-centres (https://www.dpp.cz/en/list-of-info-centres/).
For the short ride (less then 30 minutes, for example from the apartments to the gym) you can buy ticket for 24 CZK. For longer rides (up to 90min) buy ticket for 32 CZK. To be sure and aviod problems we recommend alwyas to buy the ticket for 32 CZK. You can also buy a 3-day ticket for advantageous price. You can get it only at the info-centres (there are two directly at the airport, check out the link above).
Here there is an overview of the fares: https://www.dpp.cz/en/fares-in-prague/
If you get lost and need an advice, you can call one of the Prague jammers. You will find contacts in your players booklet or here on the website.
Can't wait to Zzz you all!
