We've kept you in suspense for a long time, but the wait is finally over. We are proud to present the complete line-up for this year’s 8th edition of Metronome Prague, a musical event taking place from June 19th to 21st at the Prague Exhibition Grounds. Tickets are available now.
This year, visitors will once again experience everything they love about Metronome Prague: intense encounters with big names from the contemporary music scene alongside the discovery of emerging talents and the latest musical trends. They can also look forward to a modernized and comfortably renovated Exhibition Grounds (Výstaviště Praha).
“We have carefully selected artists who have the potential to appeal to a broader audience and showcase the direction of contemporary music. When planning the three-day program, we built on our experiences from previous years – for example, Thursday will start later to ensure that no key moments are missed. The entire venue has been revamped, making it more ‘compact’ based on feedback from our visitors, while still offering excellent facilities, including a high-standard food and beverage zone. This year, our beer garden concept will expand to include ‘Smoke & Fire,’ an outdoor restaurant featuring live cooking shows and workshops,” explains David Gaydečka, the director of Metronome Prague.
On Thursday evening, we will pay tribute to rock icons. Legendary rocker, bluesman, and acclaimed musician Michal Prokop, along with Framus Five, will debut their new album Ostraka and perform both their greatest hits and fresh songs. The stage will then be taken over by Jasná páka, a band that has been blurring the lines between rock, punk, and new wave since the eighties.
Friday’s program is designed not only to deliver outstanding music but also to bring an energy and originality that appeals to a younger audience. The lineup offers a diverse musical mix—from indie folk and electronic to experimental rap—ensuring that everyone finds something to enjoy.
The opening act will kick things into high gear with MikAel (Michal Foret) and his exclusive guest, Tonya Graves. MikAel brings a modern sound inspired by electropop and the alternative scene. His music combines catchy melodies, sophisticated production, and a danceable vibe, making him the perfect way to start the Friday lineup.
“A captivating audiovisual show that both provokes and fascinates, Tommy Cash, the Estonian rapper and artist known for pushing the boundaries of music and visual art, will bring his performance to Prague. If you appreciate an unconventional approach, you won’t want to miss his set. From a completely different musical realm, we will also welcome Thom Artway, a Czech singer-songwriter with a melancholic yet optimistic folk-pop sound. His music, reminiscent of global names like Passenger and Vance Joy, has won over not only the local audience but also fans abroad,” says Michaela Jiráčková, the dramaturg of the musical program.
Friday’s lineup promises a musical diversity that spans indie folk, electronic, and experimental rap—ensuring everyone can find their niche and enjoy an unforgettable evening. “One of the big discoveries visitors can look forward to is Nxdia—a British singer-songwriter of Egyptian descent whose emotive voice and modern pop sound resonate with Generation Z. Their music blends introspective lyrics with production influences from alternative pop and electronic music, making them one of the most intriguing new talents on the scene. Likewise, there’s HotWax, a British trio that delivers raw garage rock energy mixed with grunge and punk aesthetics. If you’re a fan of bands like Hole or The White Stripes, you definitely won’t want to miss HotWax,” Michaela Jiráčková recommends.
Saturday will see Metronome Prague 2025 culminate in a spectacular All Stars Night! The Fontana stage will be headlined by three exceptional Czech vocalists and multiple Anděl Award winners: Aneta Langerová, Bára Poláková, and Klára Vytisková. Meanwhile, the Main stage will gradually be taken over by the star power of Rag'n'Bone Man, Alanis Morissette, and The Streets.
British singer and songwriter Rag'n'Bone Man, whose real name is Rory Charles Graham, will showcase a repertoire built on a unique, multi-genre blend of blues, soul, and hip-hop at the Exhibition Grounds. Metronome visitors will get to fully experience his deep, powerful, and soulful vocals, beloved by fans worldwide.
After 17 long years, Alanis Morissette will perform in Prague. This iconic goddess and ironic rebel, with 7 Grammy Awards and 75 million records sold among many other accolades, is known for her deeply expressive music and unmistakable voice, familiar from hits like “Thank U,” “Ironic,” and “You Oughta Know,” among many others. To close Saturday evening, Mike Skinner and The Streets will take the stage. This British rapper is adored by audiences for his authenticity, anti-celebrity stance, and immediacy—qualities sure to resonate with Metronome Prague’s crowd.
Saturday’s program also includes a performance at Moon Club by British artist Rufus Miller, known for his collaborations with Sting. His style reflects influences of psychedelic and gothic rock as well as traditional folk music, with lyrical themes of love, loss, and melancholy. On the techno scene, the legendary DJ Pavel Bidlo will set the tone with his well-known house sets, celebrated both at home and abroad. After midnight, as the new day dawns, visitors will be greeted by Township Rebellion, a German duo inspired by the vibrant techno scenes of Berlin and Cologne, whose combined influences create a distinct and fascinating musical style.
