    Weather

    Early November in Prague is late autumn. Typical daytime highs sit around 3-8°C, night-time lows fall near 0°C (occasionally below), and skies are often overcast with light rain, morning fog and the first possible snow flurries of the season. Daylight hours are short by the show weekend. Treat these as climatological bands rather than a forecast and check the current Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (CHMI) outlook before travelling. The halls at PVA EXPO PRAHA LETŇANY are indoor and heated, so the main weather exposure is the walk between transport and the entrance.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    Prague has broad 4G and 5G mobile coverage, including the Letňany area around PVA EXPO PRAHA LETŇANY. EU/EEA travellers benefit from EU roaming rules; visitors from outside the EU should arrange a local SIM or an eSIM before arrival. Exhibition venues in Prague typically provide Wi-Fi in halls, press rooms and conference areas, but bandwidth can be congested during show hours - exhibitors planning live product demos or payment terminals should confirm dedicated exhibitor internet packages, cable drops and redundancy with the venue and organiser before the show.

    Cultural notes

    Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.

    Language

    Czech is the official language. English is widely understood in Prague hotels, at PVA EXPO PRAHA LETŇANY and among the cannabis trade community, but a few Czech phrases (dobrý den, děkuji) are appreciated in shops and taxis.

    Currency and payments

    The Czech koruna (CZK) is the local currency; Czechia does not use the euro. Cards are widely accepted across Prague, but keep a small amount of cash for transit tickets, small vendors and some taxis.

    Local cannabis context

    Czechia permits medical cannabis under prescription and has a long-standing hemp research and cultivation sector. Retail sale of cannabis for recreational use is not legal, and rules for psychoactive cannabinoids in consumer products have been tightened in recent years. Visitors and exhibitors should follow Czech law and the venue's own product, sampling and advertising rules.

    Transit etiquette

    Buy and validate a timed PID ticket before boarding metro, tram or bus. Ticket checks are common, fines apply to unvalidated tickets, and quiet carriages and priority seating for elderly or disabled passengers are observed.

    Tipping and dining

    A tip of around 5-10% is customary in Prague restaurants and bars when service is not already included. Lunch is often the main hot meal of the day; many venues around Letňany fill quickly during trade-fair weeks, so booking ahead helps.

    Business etiquette

    Czech business culture is relatively formal and punctual: arrive on time, exchange business cards, and keep initial meetings focused on product facts, certifications and pricing terms rather than small talk.

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

    Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.

    Flights

    Destination: PRG

    Google Flights captures for departures on 6 November 2026 into Prague (PRG) show round-trip economy from CZK 4,296 (London Heathrow), CZK 15,603 (New York JFK, IST connection), CZK 27,038 (Sydney, via SIN and IST) and CZK 28,413 (Tokyo NRT, AUH connection), including taxes and fees for one adult for 6-10 November 2026. These are indicative sample fares captured at search time and are flagged as currently low - book early and confirm live prices before purchasing. Tips for Cannafest: fly into PRG rather than neighbouring airports because the venue sits on the northeast side of Prague with direct metro Line C access; if your dates are flexible, compare Thursday 5 November arrivals with Friday 6 November to reduce pressure on the first show day; and allow a connection buffer if you are routing via IST, AUH or SIN, since winter schedules can shift.

    Transport

    Get to the venue and around the city with these options.

    Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Václav Havel Airport Prague (PRG): Václav Havel Airport Prague (PRG) is the main commercial gateway serving Prague; allow 45–60 min by road or rail to PVA EXPO PRAHA LETŇANY..

Pickup zones at the airport and at PVA EXPO PRAHA LETŇANY are signposted; confirm the vehicle and plate in the app before entering. Expect surge pricing at show opening and closing times and on Friday evenings, and keep a backup contactless payment method in case a driver prefers cash.

    Public transit: Prague's integrated PID network covers metro, trams and buses with a single timed ticket. PVA EXPO PRAHA LETŇANY is served by metro Line C to Letňany station, followed by a short walk or a connecting bus to the fairground entrances. Journey time from the city centre is roughly 25-35 minutes depending on your starting station. Buy a timed ticket (approximate single-journey fares are around 30-40 CZK for 30-90 minutes - confirm live fares on the DPP/PID tariff pages) and validate it before boarding. Services run frequently on show days but can be crowded at peak times, so allow a buffer before scheduled meetings.

    Parking: On-site parking is available at PVA EXPO PRAHA LETŇANY for cars and coaches, with designated areas near the hall entrances. Exact daily rates, reservation options and hall-by-hall access were not captured for this listing - confirm current parking terms, exhibitor permits and disabled parking arrangements with the venue or organiser before travelling. Arrive early on peak days, follow on-site signage rather than street parking in Letňany, and allow extra time for security screening when entering with vehicles or bulky equipment.

    Weather

    Plan and pack for the event climate.

    Month: November 2026 (late autumn)

    Temperature: Approx. 3-8°C daytime and near 0°C at night, with occasional dips below freezing (climatological band for Prague in early November - confirm the forecast before travel).

    Seasonality: November is one of Prague's damper months: frequent overcast days, spells of light rain, morning fog and the first possible snow flurries. Daylight is short, with darkness falling in the late afternoon, so plan indoor evening activities rather than sightseeing walks.

    Packing: Pack thermal base layers, a warm mid-layer and a waterproof outer coat, plus an umbrella and water-resistant shoes for walking between metro stops and the halls. Bring gloves, a hat and a scarf for early mornings and late evenings, and smart-casual indoor clothing for business meetings since PVA EXPO halls are heated. A small day bag for a power bank, business cards, a refillable water bottle and your ticket QR covers a full show day.
