Summer in Ljubljana Old Town International Cycle

Beginnings of the Summer in Ljubljana Old Town International Cycle date back to 1988, when the Society for the Revival of the Cultural Image of the Old Town was founded and began to revive the city’s cultural pulse by organising concerts and various other cultural events. Every year, the cycle takes place from the second half of June until the end of August at renowned locations such as the Slovenian Philharmonic, Ljubljana Castle, National Gallery, City Museum, City Hall, St. Nicholas’ cathedral, and others, starting with the traditional festive Opening Concert at the Congress Square. With a diverse selection of classical music of different periods for different ensembles (from soloists and chamber ensembles to larger choirs and orchestras) Summer in Old Ljubljana Town conjures up unforgettable musical evenings for thousands of visitors. Summer in Ljubljana Old Town pays special attention to the current creativity of the most prominent Slovenian artists and performers of all generations while the international dimension is provided by outstanding foreign musicians from different parts of the world. Summer in Ljubljana Old Town’s concerts can also be heard on the Radio Slovenia – Ars Programme or seen on the TV Slovenia.
