The parade of civic initiatives, which took place on 17 November through the city center from Smetana's riverside across the Charles Bridge and Kampa on the plaza of the National Theatre. With the help of masks in life-size, allegorical structures and disguises involved groups satirically materialized current social issues. I met the parade in Kampa in fog and dusk and accompanied it to Újezd.

... this year was attended by civic associations: Nadace Via, Člověk v tísni, Greenpeace, Asistence, Věda žije!, Tosara, Vyšší hrádek, Hnutí za aktivní mateřství, Divadlo na Kocourkách, Otrokem své rasy, Studenti FHS a Komunita pro lidský rozvoj and more. The main organizer was the initiative FÓR_UM.
