06. Aug 2025 from 18:00, Defense Moat, Ljubljana Castle
PikniKoncert is a family gathering with good music, food and drink. PikniKoncert is a different way to spend free time, as it offers a quality cultural experience combined with relaxed socialising and ecological awareness.
After several successful festival summers in Tivoli Park, Piknikoncerts have been taking place on the castle plateau for the last few summers, in the Defensive Moat beneath the walls of the Ljubljana Castle. Escape the summer heat and make your way to the Ljubljana Castle in the late afternoon. Spread out a picnic blanket, enjoy a snack and relax while listening to ethnic and folk concerts. Bring blankets and full picnic baskets. Invite your friends and don’t forget the children, toys and dogs, as well as lots of positive energy, so that we can all enjoy ourselves together!
In the case of bad weather, the event will be postponed or cancelled.
We recommend using the funicular to attend the event.
Êdna
Êdna is a group of experienced musicians from the Prekmurje-Štajerska region who take traditional folk songs from Prekmurje and Porabje and give them a modern, fresh touch. In 2018, they released their debut album Ajnc, cvaj, draj (One, Two, Three), followed five years later by their second album Slove rdeče. Êdna has performed in the Slovenian pavilion at the EXPO World Exhibition in Milan, as well as at various festivals in Slovenia, at the Grazer Sprachenfest in Austria, and several times in Porabje. The band is also the winner of the competition Ljudska je kul (Folk Is Cool), organised by the Republic of Slovenia Public Fund for Cultural Activities (2016). It participated in the documentary film Med Mura in Rabo (Between the Mura and the Raba Rivers, 2022), and was a guest on Radio Slovenia’s First Channel, where they performed live in the show Prva vrsta (The First Row).
