The festival focuses on experimental music and art, showcasing notable audiovisual formats across several stages.
Lunchmeat Festival is a 4-day electronic music, experimental sound, audiovisual performances, art installations festival at Trade Fair Palace in Prague, Czech Republic. The September 2026 edition runs 24–27 Sept 2026.
Announced so far: 3C 273, Autechre, Bapari, Bitter Babe, Buena Tarde & ztaa, Debit + Ian Margo & Alexandre Montserrat (Bianjie Systems), Isama Zing & DJ GÄP and Kevin Peter He & FITNESSS and 22 more.

The line-up is spread across the 4 festival days, so a full-weekend ticket is the only way to catch every name.
Everything happens at Trade Fair Palace, in Prague. Prague · 0 km · about 0 min is the organiser's practical nearby base for accommodation and transfers to the festival site.
Lunchmeat Festival keeps the same calendar slot each year: September 2026 for this edition, opening on a Thursday and closing on a Sunday. It falls in autumn, after the summer circuit closes, when flights and rooms come back down in price. That slot matters for the budget — flights and rooms in Prague are priced for the festival weekend, not the week around it, so shifting your arrival by a day often saves more than any ticket tier does.
- Multiple stages including Trade Fair Palace and Ankali
- Years running: since 2014

See every ticket tier and travel option →Planning the trip, step by step
- 1Book the ticket first: tiers at Lunchmeat Festival are sold in waves and the cheapest wave is gone long before the line-up is complete.
- 2Then price the travel from Paris — Cinderella compares train, bus, car and flight for the same dates, and the cheapest option is not always the obvious one.
- 3Reserve 5 nights rather than 4: the last night of a festival almost always ends after the last train home.
- 4If you fly into Vaclav Havel Airport Prague, check the transfer time to Prague before booking the earliest departure — the airport bus is usually the cheapest leg of the whole trip.
- 5Follow Lunchmeat Festival on Cinderella to be emailed when a ticket price drops or a new tier opens.
