Kosovo is a dynamic destination where tradition meets modern creativity, and its vibrant calendar of events reflects the country’s youthful energy and rich cultural roots. Among the standout happenings is Sunny Hill Festival in Pristina, a world-class music event founded by global pop icon Dua Lipa, which brings top international artists and thousands of fans to the capital each summer. Also gaining traction is NGOM Fest in Prizren, where music, nature, and activism come together in a unique blend, set against the stunning backdrop of the Sharr Mountains. For cinema lovers, the Dokufest International Documentary and Short Film Festival is a must-attend — turning the historic city of Prizren into a lively hub of film screenings, workshops, and late-night riverfront gatherings.
Kosovo also proudly celebrates its deep-rooted cultural heritage through events that honor its history and traditions. The Etno Fest in Kukaj village revives traditional rural life with folk music, artisanal crafts, and local cuisine in an authentic mountain setting. Meanwhile, Anibar Animation Festival in Peja showcases the power of animated storytelling, bringing together artists and audiences from across Europe. Whether you’re drawn by the sounds of global music, the depth of Balkan tradition, or the energy of emerging creatives, Kosovo’s events offer a fresh and unforgettable way to experience its unique identity and warm hospitality.

SCHREIBWORKSHOP
Workshop on Creative Writing with Sandra Hoffmann
We girls, we boys!
Although we are all flesh and blood, and although it would be desirable for girls and boys, women and men in this world to have the same rights and responsibilities, get equal pay for their work, and much more, there are differences between them sexes. But there are many more prejudices about the differences: boys, they say, they play with cars, girls with dolls, men do not cry, women are more the crybabies, girls are neater than boys, boys are better at sports, and so on. We’ve all heard that before. But is that really true?
What are girls or women and how are boys or men really? What wishes does who and what dreams, what hopes, what desires?
We want to write small personal texts about such things in the workshop with the help of writing exercises and writing assignments, and all those who have already considered whether it is true that boys and girls are so very different, or perhaps in some respects, are very cordial invited to apply for it.
If you are interested, send a short letter of motivation in German of no more than 300 words to 26.04.2019 under info@goethe-ks.org
