Slovenia - Ljubljana
Youth Orchestra • Sacred Choir • Secular Choir • Band
- Historic City
- Varied Landscape
- Incredible Venues
For many years, our music groups have been experiencing Slovenia just for one day, by staying in Austria’s most southerly province, Carinthia (see page 28). Now we would like to introduce Slovenia as a country that has plenty of offer in its own right. Its landscapes are sharply contrasting, from its soaring Julian mountains to the warm waters of the Adriatic, with beautiful rolling fields and meadows in between, dotted with delightful villages and majestic cities full of charm and character.
Concerts
Our groups stay in Ljubljana, where our groups can perform by the cliff-top castle, as well as in many of the churches throughout the historic centre. Outside Ljubljana, we can arrange performances in the glorious resort of Bled, as well as in the medieval town of Radovljica. Other possibilities include a performance at the famous Postojna caves, or in one of the pretty seaside resorts on Slovenia’s tiny yet vibrant coastline. .

Accommodation
The Park Hotel is a modern building just a stone’s throw away from the heart of Ljubljana, making this a very convenient place to stay. Groups are either accommodated in the hotel part of the building, where rooms are of a high standard, with private bathroom, or in the hostel section, where rooms are simpler, with bathroom facilities on the corridor. Downstairs, all groups eat in the dining room.
