Unique place for underground music and art.

Club actually began in 1969! Since that it always was and is a place for underground music and activities - strictly. Until 1987 of course the students were taking care of the club and of course with many problems, due to heavy communist era. Different independent folk, jazz, new wave, acoustic music, "discos" etc. were happening here. The place survived very complicated times and during the velvet revolution it was important meeting point for all kinds of discussions, chats and readings. After 1989 punk and hardcore generation took place in writing history of this special space. Borders were finally open and many foreign bands went on. Since now, hundreds of bands and artists played and performed, from punk, rock, hardcore over ska, reggae, jungle, electro to folk, acoustic music, indie, new wave etc. Many promoters during this period was hard-working organizing and taking care of the bands. Thanx them and thanx the club crew - 007 still rocks!

Official owner is ČVUT, student association, which administrates the whole campus. Recent operator Ivo Kucera is renting the verge since early 90ties, the contract is reconditioned every year, usually without any complication. He is the heart of the club, working and working as nobody can imagine. Without him, the club would be probably long time gone. All the working crew is at 007 club like "at home", living for this place. As many club´s friends and helpers. This is the special atmosphere, the special energy, the special family thing about Klub 007 Strahov. The community is very strong and it is kind of changing througout different time periods, but the soul remains. Supporting independent live music and acts, strictly anti-main-stream, mostly D.I.Y. The club was never touched by techno, house, rave "discos" and maybe thanx this, was never "contaminated" by chemical drugs. Huge hard core scene boom was in 90´s, also ska community found its home there, straight edge crew as well, punk rockers and psychobilly crowd loves 007, indie music fans come often, live-electro music and also hip hop Saturday´s parties were for years big and greatly visited classic. Music diversity is basic 007 domain.

In the 22 years since its inception, The Lucerna Music Bar has become one of the most important music venues in the Czech Republic. The location has a rich cultural tradition and prides itself on making every concert a very special experience, where the artists seem to be within grasp during their performance on the famous round stage. Hundreds of local and foreign bands have already performed on this stage.Just to mention a few are artists such as: Joss Stone, Earth, Wind & Fire, Maceo Parker, Hurts, The Parov Stelar Band, Stephen and Kymani Marley, Major Lazer, Living Colour, Keisza, The Subways, Two Door Cinema Club, Incognito, Pat Metheny, Robben Ford, Mos Def, Mark Lanegan and José González. An all-time favorite are the 80’s & 90’s video-parties, which have been taking place every Friday and Saturday since 2000.

The history of the Lucerna Music Bar goes back to the beginning of the 20th century, when the Palace Lucerna was build. By 1909 the club was already used as a theatre and later as a cabaret under Karel Hašler. The next important step in the history of the Lucerna Music Bar is the year 1927, when the Cabaret – Restaurant Lucerna opened. Many famous Czech artists performed here (Voskovec and Werich) and popular jazz bands played and filled the dancefloor. After 1948 the whole Lucerna palace, which was property of the Havel family, was nationalized. In the dark days of communism the club was used as a night club without any real focus. 20 years ago, on October 25th, 1995, the new era of the Lucerna Music Bar had begun. We strongly believe that era will continue on for at least the next 20 years.

MeetFactory is a non-profit international center for contemporary art founded in 2001 by the artist David Černý. In the wake of the destructive floods of 2002, MeetFactory was forced to evacuate its previous premises in Holešovice. The project was resurrected three years later in an industrial building in Prague's quarter Smíchov, in a unique space squeezed between a motorway and an active railroad. The program started after a substantial reconstruction in 2007.
The program of MeetFactory consists in four dramaturgic departments - music, theatre, gallery and the artist-in-residence program.
The music program presents the international independent music scene, holding six to eight performances per month in the music hall fitted with high-end audio equipment.
The theatre program focuses on contemporary prose, as well as experimental interdisciplinary projects, often involving visual artists, musicians, or non-actors.
The three galleries offer space for critical confrontation of the national and international art scenes. The MeetFactory Gallery focuses on original curatorial projects, while the Kostka Gallery presents solo shows of emerging and established artists. The program of the Wall Gallery, a side-facade of the building, comprises of large-scale realizations beyond street art.
The international Artist-in-Residence program is the largest studio program in the Czech Republic. MeetFactory facilitates fifteen studios, which annually host over thirty visual artists, curators, musicians, theatre directors or writers. We foster the involvement of our artists in residence not only within the programming of MeetFactory, but also in the context of the Czech and Central European art scenes.
Besides the four dramaturgic departments the program of MeetFactory is oriented on inter-genre and educational projects which offer the public new forms of encounter with contemporary art.
