Write your own article about Brno and win two tickets to party Itch My Hahaha, held at Fléda club (which is a kind sponsor of this competition) on Friday, September 19. The tickets are worth CZK 360 (€14.20).

The simple rules

  • Write a 100+ words long article that fits in categories “Best of Brno” or “District Guide”. If you are not sure about the form, read older posts to find out how it should look like.
  • It does not have to be perfect. Don’t feel shy for your English. You do not have to send any photos (although it would be great). Just help people to enjoy Brno in the way you do.
  • Send the article to kasparek@brnonow.com before Sunday, September 13. I will pick the best one in the next two days and publish it at Brno Now. The winner will get an access for two people to party Itch My Hahaha at Fléda.
  • If there are more good articles (I am almost sure), I would be glad to publish these too, but as there will be no second od third prize, I will ask you first.
  • I may edit the article(s) a bit, ie correct grammar, improve the headline etc., but don’t worry, it won’t hurt.

So, kids – give us some great advices for enjoying this lovely town!
