The Christmas tree is already shining in Uhřínevsi PRAGUE 22 | News
The ceremonial lighting of the Christmas tree took place in Prague 22 in three places. In Pitkovice, in Hájko and in front of Uhříněvská town hall.
“There is a special event in Hájek, where from start to finish, just like in Pitkovice, it forms a community. In both of these parts, there are community associations that cover the whole event, so it’s more of a low-cost thing. And it’s a lot about the activity of individual citizens and perhaps about the heart,” said Hana Vagenknechtová (DvacetDvojka + SVOBODNÍ) – deputy mayor of Prague 22 municipal council.
A performance about stolen light was prepared for the visitors, which offered aerial acrobatics, characters in costumes and playing with fire. Once again, local residents had the opportunity to enjoy this event to the fullest without being restricted by anti-covid measures.
“We had to cancel all the events last year, because last year we had about the 16th wave of covid and we had to cancel it all. We lit the tree and quickly broke up, so this year, if you look around us, it’s really different, there are a lot of people here and there are events that are missing,” said Tomáš Kaněra (ANO) – mayor of the Prague 22 municipality.
After 40 minutes of the performance, the lighting of the Christmas tree itself followed, which brought smiles to the faces of children and adults.
