United Islands of Prague (often branded simply as United Islands) turns the Vltava River islands into a roaming showcase of new Czech and European music in Prague, Czech Republic, held each late April and early May. The heart of the action is the open-air stages on Štvanice Island (and nearby riverbanks), complemented by intimate club nights across the city, so you can hop from indie and rock to hip-hop and electronic discoveries—easy island-hopping with a laid-back springtime buzz.
