01
Three ways into the 2026 programme
These are three checked programme options, not endorsements of availability or suitability for every age. For a first visit, choose one. Do not combine closely spaced shows simply because their start times fit on paper.
Saturday performance · 3 October
Baby Volcano is listed at Kino Šiška, 21:00–22:15. Leave time to reach Šiška rather than treating it as an old-town stop.
Late club programme · 3–4 October
Flinta klub at Channel Zero runs 23:00–05:00. It belongs to Saturday night even though the end falls on Sunday.
02
Language, tickets and the right performance
Start with the form of the work: a film, spoken performance, concert and workshop make different demands on a visitor. Read the language and subtitle notes before booking something led by speech. A music or visual performance may be easier to follow, but its content and age advice still matter.
Confirm admission, reservation and access on the individual event page. The programme can place works at different venues and on dates outside the core festival. Save the venue name as well as the title so a later programme change is easier to notice.
03
Plan the whole evening
Have dinner near the chosen venue before the show. Set aside a travel buffer rather than scheduling an immediately preceding guided tour. If you want to see two works, check both end times and allow for a delayed exit, a coat queue and a change of venue.
For late performances, decide how you will return to your accommodation before going inside. Check current public transport hours; for a very late finish, a prearranged ride or a realistic walk may be the better plan. Ask the venue directly about step-free entry, accessible toilets and seating for the exact performance setup.
