Ljubljana Festival

A joint concert by the Slovene Philharmonic Orchestra and the Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra, held at Kongresni trg as the opening concert of the Ljubljana Festival, 2016

The Ljubljana Festival is a renowned and highly ambitious international festival which offers a variety of music, theatre and dance performances by leading international as well as domestic artists. Between 70 and 80 events range from concerts of classical, ethno, rock and jazz music, to performances of opera, theatre and ballet. It enriches the capital city with concerts of star soloists, acclaimed ensembles, chamber and philharmonic orchestras and performances by prima ballerinas, opera divas, and seasoned thespians.

Taking place from the end of June to the end of September, it is the main summer festival in Ljubljana and certainly amongst the bigger ones in the wider region. As of recent years, the festival also has a small 'winter edition' in February.

SToP Slovene Percussion Project

Founded in 1999, the SToP Slovene Percussion Project is a percussion ensemble of a highly diverse artistic profile. It deals with contemporary chamber and electro-acoustic music, experiments with new instruments, runs projects and performances for children, and mixes music with performing arts. Besides regularly performing in various contexts in Slovenia (also doing more 'lighthearted' and playful gigs, running workshops, and partaking in theatre and dance plays), they frequently do gigs and projects abroad.

The group has been awarded two prestigious prizes, the Prešeren Foundation Award and the Župančič Award.
