Culture
Throughout the year, Ljubljana bustles with the arts, ranging from small scale street theatre right through to grand opera performances, classical music recitals and the granddaddy of them all, the Ljubljana Summer Festival. Ljubljana’s tourist offices hand out the free monthly Where to? leaflet, which gives a good listings rundown, as well as a free A4 sheet detailing events on a weekly basis. For more alternative and small scale events and happenings, ask in trendy bars like Café Maček or Galerija. Ljubljana has a decent supply of theatre venues that host a diverse range of performances. High quality acting and vivid productions often transcend the language barrier. Two key venues are the Café Teater, Mikloaičeva 2 (tel: (01) 252 7108; website: www.cafe-teater.si) and the massive Cankarjev Dom, Preaernova 10 (tel: (01) 241 7299; website: www.cd-cc.si), while in the warmer months outdoor Kri~anke, Trg Francoske Revolucije 1 (tel: (01) 252 6544) comes into its own.
