From world-class concerts to culinary celebrations and hidden cultural treasures, our October Almanac X Alcron is your guide to everything not to be missed. After each adventure, return to the comfort of our luxurious Almanac X Alcron Hotel, where modern Elias Coffee, stylish Alcron Bar, and fine-dining Alcron Restaurant provide the perfect atmosphere for relaxation, inspiration, and connection.

A TASTE OF AUTUMN DELIGHTS
October is also a feast for the palate. On 3 and 4 October, Shooters Island hosts the Great October Tasting, where small winemakers from Moravia meet vintners from around the globe. Pair a glass of wine with gourmet snacks while listening to live bands by the river.

After exploring these outdoor markets, treat yourself to refined dining at our elegant Alcron Restaurant. Our chefs reinterpret traditional Czech ingredients into modern culinary experiences, perfectly complemented by wines recommended by our sommeliers. For a more casual moment, the inviting Elias Coffee invites you to savor specialty brews and pastries while planning the next adventure.
