The Coolest Music Venue and Museum You’ve Never Heard of: Prague’s Doupe (aka DopeYeah)
Doupe (aka DopeYeah), is a music venue just outside Prague's city center, with intimate stages, a world-class museum of radios, jukeboxes and more.
In an elaborately converted garage in the Czech Republic, a 15-minute ride from Prague ’s city center, sits one of the most unusual and ambitious venues one is likely to find anywhere. The jaw-dropping collection includes literally hundreds of ultra-rare items across several dimly lit rooms decorated with vintage posters for Philips radios and other products. While the venue’s business model, which is subscription-based, presents a challenge for staging one-off shows for audiences beyond its core clientele, the company stages bigger gigs, including the Metronome Festival, at other sites and deploys their remote facilities: Last year, the company set up a mobile studio in a container at Metronome, and British superstar Raye came in for a podcast interview and was so inspired that she and her band played an improvised set that went on for 90 minutes.
