In 2019, the rock band Kabát celebrated an impressive 30 years on the music scene. With its original lineup intact, the band treated itself to only five concerts for its anniversary, but they were "damn big" ones. The performance at Prague's Eden Arena on June 22, 2019, offered a cross-section of hits from the successful career of the five musicians from Teplice, who once again confirmed that their spontaneous energy can create a thrilling live show.

Kabát: 2013 - 2015
A concert marking what would have been the 70th birthday of Jiří "Dědek" Šindelář—bassist for the band Katapult—dedicated to him by his son, Michal. Since 2019, Michal Šindelář had been working on a unique recording of his father’s songs, featuring a lineup of prominent Czech bassists. In the studio, every musician played the same instrument: Jiří Šindelář’s vintage Fender bass guitar. This project culminated in a concert and the official launch of the album. The concert footage is interwoven with documentary-style testimonials from family and friends, who share memories of the legendary figure that "Dědek" undoubtedly was. The program features Michal Šindelář, Jaroslav Šindelář, Ladislav Vostárek, Milan Špalek, Milan Broum, Karel Novák, Petr Šťastný, Wojttech Říha, Lukáš Pavlík, and David Koller.

A Hell of a Big Concert II held on September 13, 2014, at Prague’s Vypich, was one of the largest rock concerts in the history of the Czech Republic. It was a meticulously produced show by the band Kabát, who celebrated their anniversary in spectacular fashion. Performing on a massive stage built by Stageco—featuring top-tier sound and 26 cameras capturing every moment—the band played over 30 songs from their repertoire, ranging from older hits to tracks that were new at the time. The performance was enhanced by pyrotechnics, animations, and projections on giant LED screens that immersed the audience in the action; the show was expertly paced as a dynamic rock ride with no lulls. Prior to Kabát’s set, Lo Hrůzová and the legendary Danish band D-A-D performed as guests, giving the event an international dimension.
