Do we need a ticket for the whole event?

No. The food zone outside and the Mexican market in Hall 13 are free to walk into. Only the kids' carnival in Hall 11 is ticketed, at 100 Kč per person, in one-hour slots.

How much of it is indoors?

The kids' carnival (Hall 11) and the Mexican market (Hall 13) are indoors. The food stalls, music and parade are outside on Tržní náměstí, so dress for a cold November day.

What's the best time to go with kids?

Between 1pm and 7pm, when the kids' carnival and the Hall 13 market are both open. The food zone keeps going until 10pm.

Indoors, a Mexican market offers crafts and Catrina face painting, and Hall 11 runs an hour-long kids' carnival with a dance workshop, disco, mask and puppet making, and a visit from a Xolo, the Mexican hairless dog.
