The festival is one of the most important cultural events in Prague. It is conducted under auspices of the City of Prague, the Ministry of Culture and The Guardian newspaper.

"The first and last nights of the program are sold out, with 460 seats booked, and that the other days also look very promising."

By around 3:30pm the Skinheads started gathering at the Charles University Law Faculty. In all there were twenty, the rest were Anti-Fascist demonstrators. More and more Anti-fascists started gathering, and then the police started showing up. The police came with armored trucks with crowd control panels welded to the front. The crowds were growing thicker, and then suddenly everyone rushed to the side of the faculty building. A man had taken a trashcan and started to bash a student's face with one of the narrow metal trashcans outside the building. After the attack the student disappeared as well as the attacker. A square foot sized puddle of blood was on the ground. About three feet away was the dented trashcan. On the wall, between the blood and trash can hung a plaque dedicated to victims of the Nazi occupation that were thrown over the nearby bridge May 5, 1945 as a result of the Prague Uprising only four days before the regime fell.
