The Ljubljana Festival traditionally marks the entry into a new year with its Winter Festival. Activities for introducing this festival into the regular programme began in 2017, as heralded by a concert from the London Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Now an annual series of concerts featuring acclaimed domestic and international artists takes place at various venues around Ljubljana, to the delight of music lovers. The Winter Festival enriches and animates the city and winter events, charms visitors and pushes artists to greater heights.
