Kino Šiška

A young, experimental, and vibrant contemporary cultural space, this urban cultural center brings together concerts, exhibitions, performances, street culture, design, and workshops. Originally a cinema, the venue was transformed into a city cultural center in 2009. While the exterior features a raw, industrial concrete façade, the interior includes a variety of dynamic spaces such as the large performance hall, the medium-sized black box stage, a gallery, and a lounge area—making it one of Ljubljana’s most energetic and forward-thinking cultural venues.

First time for COFESTIVAL and I'm very excited! This is the main venue of the festival. It's easy to come from the city center as many bus lines stop here. The reception is nice and warm, with a bar providing a variety of drinks. No food though. You can pay by card. There's a burek near the bus station if you are hungry. The seats in the theater are very basic. For the festival the seats are not numbered but you see quite well even from the last row. It's not obvious to queue either. Lastly, it snowed and the passage from the bus station to the theater glides a bit but it's the same in the city center. So you just need to be careful in case of snow.

If you're looking for a fantastic venue to catch some live music or attend a unique event in Ljubljana, look no further than Kino Šiška. This former cinema has been transformed into a top-notch event location, and I recently had the pleasure of catching a band performance there. First of all, the venue itself is stunning. The main concert hall is spacious with great acoustics and a modern design that perfectly complements the building's historic roots. The stage is large and provides an excellent view from any spot in the room. Plus, there are plenty of bars and restrooms so you never have to wait too long for refreshments. But what really sets Kino Šiška apart is the quality of events they host. I recently saw a band play there, and the experience was unforgettable. From start to finish, the sound was crystal clear and the lighting was expertly done to create an atmosphere that perfectly complemented the music. The crowd was energetic and friendly, and the staff made sure everyone felt welcome and comfortable throughout the show. Overall, I highly recommend Kino Šiška as a must-visit event location in Ljubljana. Whether you're looking to catch some live music, attend a cultural event, or just soak up the unique atmosphere of this historic building, Kino Šiška is sure to impress.

Great place and atmosphere, concert hall is just the right size and sound is awesome. I went to a Clutch concert and band rocked and made a great gig. I'm not sure but I think it was my 1st time visit to Kino Šiška, but for sure wasn't last. Rock on! \m/

Great concert venue with steps in the auditorium. Great sound and light technology. And finally a venue with room acoustic treatment. One of the best clubs i've been to so far - and it has been many...

Amazing cultural centre just a bit outside of Lubljanja, been there for a concert, and it was the quickest queue ever to get in. Good sound, room not too big but well ventilated, beer is very cheap; the art exhibition was nice too. Earplugs and matches on the house

Nice place!! I love the fact that they limit the number of tickets so its never over crowded. Good program! Toilettes has hangers on the door 🙂 in many places you cant hang your bag when going to the toilette.

Very good venue. Variety of beers, no que. perfect sound , enough space. Modernized . Public transport
