June 20, 2018
Tomorrow, June 21, is the longest day of the year, and if you happen to find yourself in Ljubljana, Maribor, Murska Sobota, or Piran (and nearby) then you can get into the midsummer mood with a celebration of music.
The occasion is World Music Day (Praznik glasbe), and it will be marked with performances of all kinds – classical, jazz, folk, blues, pop, rock, electronic, choral, acapella, reggae, noise and DJ sets, in various squares, streets, parks and venues, all free.
Further details are below, in maps provided by the organisers, with most of the action taking place in Ljubljana and the coast, where it seems that just walking around should enable you to bump into something that’s making the air move. The website, which offers not much more information than this post, is here. Clicking on the markers wil give you more details, as will opening the maps in Google Maps.
