CTGala 2024: Jazzes lezárás egy funky friss évhez

This Friday the 13th defied eerie superstitions with the electric energy and fantastic vibes of over 600 Parkmakers who converged in Brno—one of CTP’s key gravitational hubs—for CTGala 2024.

This event has become a tradition, but every year brings its own unique twist. In addition to the essential staples of the event— the Newcomers Tour (also increasingly known as the “Newbies Tour”), the highly esteemed CTAwards, anniversary celebrations, and the country presentations (which are far from “traditional” presentations to say the least)—this year was graced with a jazzy edge with one of a kind bar opening and performances from a line-up of artists that ought to be in your 2025 Spotify Wrap Up:

• Erica Falls, a Queen of R&B and Soul from New Orleans
• Candy Dulfer, a Dutch jazz and pop saxophonist
• Top Dream Company, a Czech funk band

The “Newbies” Tour kicked off with tour five buses, led by Remon Vos, Richard Wilkinson, Jakub Kodr, Peter Čerešník and Bert Hesselink. They traversed our very dynamic portfolio in Brno which spans from residential to food and beverage space and from co-working to high-tech manufacturing. Along the way, there were also mulled wine and snack stops.

The next stop was part of the evening programme in Brno’s newest bar, Jazzmin, which we tried, tested, and approved. Jazzmin, located on the ground floor of the Marriot Courtyard, brings together a New Orleans-vibrancy that meets a New York-chic kind of atmosphere. Its walls are adorned with funky art and its cocktails do not disappoint. It’s a promising hot spot for locals and internationals to mingle and contribute to Brno’s special dynamic social fabric.

The evening also took our Parkmakers to Marriot’s atrium, which lies adjacent to Jazzmin. It was transformed into an epic stage and dance floor, with a Christmas market hosting booths from all ten our countries upstairs. The space was truly transformed into a jazzy Christmas wonderland.

As always, thanks to our parkmakers for coming together to make this magic happen, but also especially to the head honcho organiser, Katka Sedlackova!
