Concert at Gong

The Ostrava stop of the tour will take place on Saturday, 14 November 2026, at the multifunctional hall Gong in Dolní Vítkovice. Gong was created by converting a gas holder built between 1922 and 1924, which stored up to 50,000 cubic meters of purified blast furnace gas until 1998. The reconstruction was designed by architect Josef Pleskot, and the first events were held here in 2012. The main hall has 1,509 seats, and on the ground floor, you will find the Dolní Vítkovice Information Centre and the Gong Gallery.

Tickets are sold by the external ticket agency Ticketportal.
