7th Gala Ball of Metropolitan University Prague
We would like to cordially invite you to the 7th Gala Ball of Metropolitan University Prague which will be held on Friday, 20 March 2015 from 7:30 pm in the magnificent interior of the Municipal House in Prague at Náměstí Republiky in Prague 1; the event will again occupy three of its halls: the unique Smetana Hall, Sladkovský Hall, and Grégr Hall.
What have we prepared for you?
As usual, there will be ample entertainment. You can dance the night away in the Smetana Hall to the music of Top Band with featured solo singers; later, you can watch the laser show. You can enjoy the performance of the winner in the category of the “biggest gainer” of the Czech Nightingale Award (Český slavík) - Xindl X. If you are keen on dancing to a Beatles tune, do not miss the performance of the Professor music group. An interesting performance will be offered by an all-female group The Apples that will play both Czech and world-famous hits. You will certainly also enjoy the performance of the Jazz Police that will play jazz adaptations of famous pop songs by Sting, Adele, Jamiroquai, Phil Collins, Michael Jackson, and others. Make sure to catch the performance of The Memphis music group that will play their original hits.
In addition to the ample musical entertainment, you can get a photograph with historic accessories on the second floor of the Municipal House.
There will be a sufficient number of refreshment bars in the Municipal House. You can find a map indicating their location on all tables.

In April 2026, the Center for Security Studies and the Department of International Relations and European Studies at Metropolitan University Prague hosted thought-provoking lectures examining the evolving landscape of violent extremism. Delivered by Sean McCafferty and Adam Hanzel, both Marie Skłodowska-Curie GLOCTER Project PhD fellows, the sessions explored how terrorist actors exploit the digital environment and how new, harder-to-define forms of extremism are reshaping traditional security frameworks. Together, the lectures offered students a comprehensive look at both the online dynamics of contemporary terrorism and the emerging challenges posed by accelerationist and nihilistic violent extremist movements.
