Under the motto “High in the sky” colourful kites will be flown over Toplocentrala contemporary art centre on Saturday, 13 July, to mark the start of the festival – July 13-15.  


Visitors to the festival over the weekend will be able to choose among different workshops, yoga, bazaars, music, telescope observation, theatre and experimental art.

Last season (January-July), Toplocentrala hosted dozens of different events. The biggest one among them took place in June when the culture centre played host to an international meeting the International Network for Contemporary Performing Arts, the biggest performing arts network, with more than 400 participants from all over the world.
