After Young Fathers, Algiers and 29 other music acts from all over Europe, MENT Ljubljana is revealing a further 26 new performers and the conference programme. Among others, MENT will feature two musicians who each started a small revolution in her field. Mary Anne Hobbs is regarded as one of the most influential personalities in music media and is a successful curator and DJ, while Dorit Chrysler has been proclaimed a sorceress on the theremin, an electronic instrument played without any physical contact. The instrument’s inventor Léon Theremin also plays an important role in the film Elektro Moskva, a documentary tribute to the Russian pioneers of futuristic sounds, which will be screened at the Slovenian Cinematheque.

With great joy and hunger, we’re announcing that select events at Kino Šiška will from now on feature the best burek snack in town.

Only a few days after announcing Young Fathers will be performing on the first evening of MENT Ljubljana, Ljubljana’s winter festival surprises with another new and exciting act, Algiers. Hailing from Atlanta and now divided between New York and London – vocalist/guitarist Franklin James Fisher, bassist Ryan Mahan and guitarist Lee Tesche were joined by ex-Bloc Party drummer Matt Tong in 2015 –, Algiers have quickly established themselves as one of the most politically outspoken and intense live bands of today. Their second album “The Underside of Power”, released by Matador Records in summer 2017, took their unique, intense blend of raw post-punk, dark electronics and passionate gospel soul to the next level.

We celebrate the past three and toast the coming four years of the Liveurope platform, which has so far supported over 1300 awesome concerts at 14 selecte concert venues around Europe. Hi, Ancienne Belgique, A38 Hajó, BLÅ, FZW, L’Aéronef, Melkweg, MusicBox, Palác Akropolis, Rockhal, Sala Apolo, Stodoła, VEGA, Village Underground and ourselves!

Due to a private event, Kino Šiška (including the box office) and the Kino Šiška Café will be closed to the public on 21st November 2017 from 7 PM. Thank you for your understanding.

Music creativity, enthusiasm and new energy will take over Ljubljana for the fourth time, from Wednesday, 31 Jan, to Friday, 2 Feb.

As many as 35 highly varied zines by international authors were submitted to this year’s ZIN3 VITRIN3 | 3rd International Zine Open Call, organised by Kino Šiška and the DobraVaga Gallery, proving that this paper DIY medium is extremely current. Each author understands and explores it in their own way, and it thereby occupies an important place in today’s culture of creativity and the diversity of all kinds of stories.

The Kino Šiška website renovation project extravaganza amazingness has been recognised for its excellence and awarded a Websi. Yay!
