The opening conference was followed by the event called ,,Hrabal Night”, named after the author of the novel, the movie Postřižiny was based on, and shot in the premises of the Dalešice brewery in the 80s of the 20th Century. The organisation of this eventreviving the famous film scenes was made possible thanks to the support of the EEA and Norway Grants, after two years. Visitors' interest in the brewery tour animated by actors from the local theatre groupwho played the film sceneson site went beyond expectations of the organizers. The event attracted a record number of visitors from the surrounding area as well as from other regions of the country. Not only did they have the opportunity to feel the atmosphere of the movie directly at the venue, but they were also allowed to visit places of the brewery that are usuallynot open to public. The attractiveness of the event was amplified by the presence of the cameraman of the above movie from 1981, Mr. Jaromír Šofr, who accepted the invitation and participated in person in the local actors´ performance. Hrabal Night contributed to the fulfilment of the objectives set out within the project, in particular by reviving a cultural monument thanks to events with a great potential to attract visitors to the brewery premises.
