On Saturday the 18th of May Andrea Bocelli will come to Prague and to the popular O2 Arena to perform there. He is maybe the most popular opera singer in the world today, and people simply love his voice and his way of behaving. The fact that he is blind makes it even more wonderful to hear and see him, considering the fact that we often consider blind people to be less worth than those with eyes. Everyone has a value and everyone is important, and Andrea Bocelli is only one of many who shows us that.
If you would like to see Andrea Bocelli as he comes to Prague to perform in 2013, you can buy tickets to this and the other Bocelli concerts using the links further down on this page. This will be an event to remember, and do not forget to book your hotel in time, because May is one of the most popular months of the year in Prague with lots of tourists and things going on.
We can also warmly recommend that you check out the Czech Beer dinner and also a river cruise while in Prague, to make your stay even more worth remembering

Mark Knopfler was born in 1949, making him 63 years at the moment, and he was for a long time known as the face of Dire Straits. While in Dire Straits Mark Knopfler was the leading guitarist and singer, and he was also writing a whole lot of songs. Since the end of Dire Straits in 1995 Mark Knopfler has kept going strong on his own, and his career as a solo artist is just as bright as the one he had as a part of Dire Straits. That is also why his tour in 2013 will visit lots of places around in Europe, and it is expected to packed at every single place as Mark Knopfler enters the stage. Among the stops you can find concerts in London, Amsterdam, Munich, Berling and lots of other important European cities. But, most important of them all is Prague, and we hope to see you all there at the Mark Knopfler concert.
