Choose performances and plan venue changes at Ljubljana's international music festival.
Use the edition information above for dates and the guide below to plan your visit. Suggested visit lengths and combinations are our planning advice; organizers set the actual programme and entry conditions.
Make a listening shortlist
Begin with two or three artists once the programme is published. Listen to a live track if available, then decide which performance you would plan your evening around. This is more useful than trying to identify a single genre for the whole festival.
For a short city break, build one concert into an otherwise flexible itinerary. For a dedicated festival visit, group your choices by venue and night before comparing passes. Keep an alternative in mind if two preferred sets overlap.
Festival passes and separate concerts
The announced May dates establish the next festival window. Admission, venues and the detailed running order have not yet been verified here. A concert appearing on the organizer's homepage may belong to Sogodbe rather than the annual festival, and a retained 2026 page may sell or describe a different product.
Follow the ticket link attached to the exact event. Compare the named nights, venues, access conditions and any wristband or reservation step. If one venue has limited capacity, find out what the pass actually guarantees before treating it as a reserved place.
Move between venues without rushing
Once the running order is available, allow for more than the map's walking time. You need time to leave a crowd, collect a coat, travel and enter the next venue. If a transition is tight, choose the performance you care about more instead of assuming both are realistic.
Have a meal before the first set and save your return route. Check any outdoor show's weather arrangements on the day. For mobility or sensory needs, contact the venue with the specific performance name, preferred viewing position and assistance you need.
