ENTERTAINMENT AND HOBBIES IN SLOVENIA, BY GLADYS MAMANI
Sax Pub
More than a quarter-century in Trnovo and decorated with colourful murals and graffiti outside, the tiny and convivial Sax has live jazz as well as blues, folk and hip-hop at 8pm on Thursday year-round. Canned stuff…
Križanke
The Krinžake Outdoor Theatre is a theare in Ljubljana (Slovenia) used for summer festivals. It is the major events are held on the open-air stage
Orto Bar
It is one of Ljubljana's central places for rock music enthusiasts. A popular bar and live-music venue for late-night drinking and dancing amid a crowd of leather-clad partygoers. It's just a 300m stroll northeast from Metelkova. Note the program takes a two-month hiatus in summer during July and August.
Kino Šiška
This renovated old movie theatre now houses an urban cultural centre, hosting mainly indie, rock and alternative bands from around Slovenia and the rest of Europe. Box office is open 3pm to 8pm Monday to Friday.
Situated in Metelkova mesto Autonomous Cultural Centre, the army barracks-turned-cultural complex located in the centre of Ljubljana, Klub Channel Zero is run by the non-governmental organisation KUD Channel Zero (arts and culture association), which has been active in the field of independent culture since1993. Today, Channel Zero represents an important stage for alternative music concerts and is the primary clubbing venue in the Metelkova complex.
I like it how you wrote it Gladys, and you would probably like all the places that you mentioned!
I do:) By Kenan Smajlović
I would like to add something about Kino Šiška.
The official explanation is that Kino Šiška has been the central Slovenian institution of the contemporary concert scene since 2009, complemented by activities in visual and performing arts. The unofficial version, which we stand by and defend: Kino Šiška is you – the audience (at more than 300 events with over 100,000 visitors a year), participating artists and event organizers (a large proportion of cultural content is created in cooperation with non-governmental organizations, local communities, public institutions, etc.).
To make a long story short: you always feel good and welcome at Kino Šiška.
