On the second weekend of June, Vrhnika becomes the vibrant venue of the Argonaut Festival—the largest festival in these parts.
The Festival brings fun activities, social events, and laughter, as well as music, cuisine, and sports. With the promise of early summer in the air, the Festival invites visitors to gather at the opening ceremony under the stars, visit the Stara cesta Road to indulge in culinary offer, and to experience the music and colourful lights of the A Night in Vrhnika event. This is when the Argonauts return to Vrhnika with Jason and Medea and the famous Argo ship, which is also included in the coat of arms of the city.
The Argonaut Festival celebrates the rich history of our town and attracts a multitude of people from all over the world. We will not reveal this year’s programme just yet, but we promise a multitude of cultural and sport events and entertainment. We will also celebrate the 30th anniversary of the cheerful Argonaut get-together.
FOR EVERYONE AND EVERY TASTE!
