Urbano Dejanje or UD Festival is being launched in Ljubljana in 2015. It is due to be held at Tobačna, a venue in becoming, first used for Flow Festival Ljubljana and offering rather unique spatial characteristics, being a modifiable, open urban space near the city centre that can accommodate quite a diverse set of activities and people. The festival is organised by ZOO, a relatively new club – set in the Tobačna complex – with a programme that ranges from dance music to jazz concerts. The other organiser is Lightbox, an event management team known for staging club events international figures from contemporary dance music.
Urbano Dejanje could be translated as urban act, which music-wise means a line-up of very different musical formations whose common denominator are artists from an urban area, be they playing jazz or hip hop, pop or ska punk. Some of the musicians hosted by UD Festival are General Woo (HR), Žiga Murko & Ricardo Wuf (ITA), Elvis Jackson and Muff. These concerts are accompanied by daytime festival garden activities that feature skate sessions and a skate fair, old timer cars exhibition, a DJ workshop, tattoo sessions, etc.
