The 2019 edition of the influential CoFestival will be taking place across a variety of venues in Ljubljana this November, including Kino Šiška, Stara Elektrarna, SNG Drama and more. As in previous years it will be bringing together an eclectic collection of artists, activists and organisers from around Europe and beyond for a week of performances, lectures, workshops and presentations. While the event is ostensibly the largest international contemporary dance festival in Slovenia, its content and impact is much wider, as “behind the artists in the Republic of Slovenia is a turbulent, uncertain, sleepless and exhausting year spent by members of the CoFestival's artistic team with activist cultural comrades and fellow workers in the struggle to secure the basic conditions of artistic and cultural work. In proletarian days and nights.”
