Events
Slug, slug. For the first time this year and for the fifth time in a row, the festival of the playful duo - beer and burger - is returning to the city. On Saturday and Sunday, April 9 and 10, Pogačarjev trg is once again the largest festival in our country, where we celebrate these two more than popular culinary partners – Pivo & Burger Fest.
The British band Placebo, which is hard to classify in just one of the popular genres, as it combines rock, punk, glam rock and electro rock, is coming to Zagreb. More precisely, we will be able to hear and see it on November 10, 2016.
The tireless punk-cabaret entertainment freaks The Tiger Lillies are returning to Kino Šiška after more than three years. Their songs cover all dark aspects of life - from prostitution and drug addiction to violence and despair. A perverted sense of humor and sharp irony are always present.
After the premiere of the Wings for Life World Run in 2014, this global event is running its third round this year. The Wings for Life World Run 2016 will take place on May 8, 2016, and the run will take place in 34 locations around the world, starting at 1 p.m. ET. All proceeds from the entry fee go to spinal cord research; the mission of the Wings for Life Foundation is to find a cure for its injuries.
We are happy to announce that this year beer and burger lovers will come to their own expense, in addition to the events within the Pivo & Burger Fest in Ljubljana, also in Celje. On Saturday, June 18, the 1st beer, burger & chili festival will take place at the Celje fairground.
Frank Turner is returning to Slovenia, who impressed again in the summer of 2015 with his completely fresh, sixth album, Positive Songs for Negative People. He has already left his mark on the world's biggest stages - from the opening of the Olympic Games to a sold-out concert at Wembley Stadium. We will be able to listen to him in the Šiška Cinema at the beginning of April.
Last year, Laibach toured in North Korea, and since that pioneering tour, the concert project The Sound of Music has also been presented on a European tour, which has been going on since December 2015. On May 9, Laibach will present this project, which on this occasion he used in Our Songs , your dreams, also presented in Cankarjev dom. Laibach's guest at the Ljubljana concert will be the band Silence.

The 31st Slovenian Music Days, organized by the Ljubljana Festival and which we like to call a celebration of Slovenian music, will take place this year between April 15 and 19.

She's Mercedes is an international project that brings together successful women with a desire to connect and share knowledge. It was presented for the first time in Germany and China, while Slovenia is joining the project for the third time. First of all, we welcome the first She's Mercedes weekend, which will take place between April 1 and 3 in the wonderful atmosphere of Otočec Castle.
The reception of the Slovenian winter athletes in Ljubljana 2016 will take place on March 22, 2016 at 5 p.m. at Kongresni trg, when fans will be able to greet the ski jumping king Petar Prevac and the rest of the winter heroes, including skiers, jumpers, biathletes, runners and runners and surfers. The reception will conclude with a performance by Dan D, but it probably goes without saying that Congress Square will once again be too small for all the fans.
