Mi2

Natur(i) acoustic tour

Mi2 are slowing down and venturing into intimacy. After a hectic jubilee year, featuring an unparalleled sold-out 30th anniversary concert celebration in the Stožice Arena, three new singles, and multiple gigs across Slovenia, Mi2’s forthcoming year will be unplugged. For 2026, the band have announced an extensive acoustic tour, Natur(i), with a special stop at Cankarjev dom’s Gallus Hall.


Although packing out halls and venues across Slovenia for decades, Mi2 are embarking on a special acoustic adventure in 2026. For the Natur(i) tour, Mi2 will revamp their acoustic repertoire. In addition to their biggest hits, tunes that have spread among the people, the setlist will include some of their rarely performed songs. Playing with an expanded lineup – joining them on stage are percussionist Blaž Celarec and a wind section led by Anže Zaveršnik, more than a few songs will be thoroughly re-arranged.


While slightly toned down, Mi2’s acoustic concerts are a real treat and a memorable experience. In addition to the live music-making, these gigs allow for a more genuine contact with the audience and opportunities for more interaction, stage banter, and direct humour. Regardless of the subdued tone, the energy builds up as the concert progresses, and the listeners are brought to their feet each and every time.

Katalena

Vesna Zornik, lead vocals, backing vocals; Polona Janežič, piano, keys, backing vocals; Jelena Ždrale, violin, viola, backing vocals; Boštjan Gombač: clarinet, sax, flutes, trumpet, backing vocals; Tibor Mihelič Syed: bass guitar, gimbri, ukulele, guitar, backing vocals; Boštjan Narat: guitar, backing vocals; Robert Rebolj: drums, percussion

Marking their 25th anniversary, Katalena will release their tenth album, Meja (Border), in the spring of 2026. On the one hand, the album is a musical travelogue of the band's fictional journey along Slovenia’s western border, and on the other, a reflection on the concept of border and its concrete and symbolic meanings. The anniversary is also their cue to hit the road and play some gigs – Katalena’s celebrations will be held in the company of their fans, the loyal following they have built over the years. The musicians have played virtually every club, concert hall, and festival stage in the country, and toured extensively abroad. A long-lived band, Katalena has not changed a single member in all these years, but recently expanded the line-up with violinist Jelena Ždrale. It's time for a new "round."

The climax of this live-music tour will take place in CD’s Gallus Hall on 1 October 2026. Cankarjev dom will provide the venue for the new album launch and, most importantly, the celebrations of the band’s silver jubilee. A quarter of a century is no small feat, and the Katalena’s October festivities will fit the bill.

The Ljubljana-based musicians play Slovenian folk music, remaining faithful to the basic principles of their music-making – exploring tradition, engaging in dialogue with the past, and creating original music with the aim of bridging the past and the present. A music-making laced with playfulness, as well as infectious rhythms and melodies. Katalena's 2026 will be just like that, playful and infectious. 

At the album launch, Katalena will be joined on stage by the singer-songwriter Rudi Bučar, a featured artist on the album Meja.

Hamo & Tribute 2 Love

Organised by: Denea d.o.o.

After their sensational sold-out performance with the RTV Slovenia Big Band at Križanke, Hamo & Tribute 2 Love are returning to the prestigious Gallus Hall. Masters of rock romance, the band first graced this stage last year to celebrate the release of two vinyl records, Iz4kani Lajv Vol. 1 & 2. This year’s acoustic treat in Slovenia’s largest concert hall will set the tone for the grand celebration of the band’s 20th anniversary - marking two decades as one of the country’s most iconic acts.

The creative heartbeat of Matevž Šalehar and his troubadours has always been about love, good vibes, and pure rock ’n’ roll. Over nearly twenty years, they’ve left an indelible mark on countless ears and hearts - through unforgettable live shows, dozens of music videos, a string of hit singles, and seven acclaimed albums. The eighth is already in the works, teased by their latest radio single Ej ĐPT, dej mi povej, a playful exploration of love in the age of artificial intelligence.

Wandering music

Concert of massed Slovenian children’s choirs marking the World Choral Day
Organised by Javni sklad Republike Slovenije za kulturne dejavnosti (JSKD)

The Republic of Slovenia Public Fund for Cultural Activities (JSKD) has been dedicated to fostering choral singing among children and adults alike for decades. Devoting particular attention to young choral singers in recent years, the Fund’s Wandering Music project creates a special opportunity for youth choirs.

First held in 2011, Wandering Music returns to Slovenia every two years. The event is dedicated to World Choral Day (celebrated on the second Sunday of December) and represents the largest choral gathering of its kind in the country. Its message of solidarity, peace, and understanding complements the artistic excellence of the programme – all beautifully embodied through the universal language of choral singing.

The 7th edition of Wandering Music brings together fifteen selected youth choirs from across Slovenia – about 450 young singers – performing together in Cankarjev dom’s Gallus Hall. The preparations began this past September with the singers meeting individually at regional rehearsals to unite their voices on 14 December in a powerful choral celebration.

The programme features works written primarily by Slovenian composers, taking the audience on a journey through both art and folk songs, and evoking the enchanting spirit of the festive season.

The young singers are preparing under the guidance of their school conductors, while on stage they will be led by conductors David Bandelj and Damijan Močnik. The event takes place in a non-competitive spirit, offering young people a rare opportunity to experience the pure joy of making music together – in the truest sense of the word.
