Loka in the Snow Festival

Loka in the Snow Festival (Loka v snegu) is a local festival that takes place at various locations in Škofja Loka in December.

The festival venues are numerous, including the Sokolski dom Cultural Centre, Pri Rdeči Ostrigi, a tent at the Štemarje parking lot, the outdoor areas of various local bars, several smaller squares, and the main square of the old town center (one of the best-preserved medieval squares in Slovenia).
