Prague offers free access to sports venues until New Year's Eve

People in Prague can use dozens of sports facilities free of charge from Thursday, December 25, until Wednesday, December 31, as the city launches the 17th edition of its Week of Free Sport. Residents can choose from more than 40 activities at clubs and venues across the capital, ranging from swimming and ice skating to paintball and martial arts. City officials say the aim is to encourage people to end the year actively and to try sports without cost. Some venues apply limits, including specific opening times or advance reservations. Last year, the event attracted around 11,000 participants.
