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.

Katër i Radës

The famous Italian opera “Katër i Radës” will be shown in Prishtina on 8th of September (Saturday) from 20:30 in Oda Theatre. Produced by Cantieri Teatrali Koreja – Lecce, the play has been commissioned by Biennale di Vennecia. This opera has been shown in several significant European festivals, including the well-known festival MESS in Sarajeva.

‘Katër i Radës’ is not just an opera of the memory. It’s an effort, though the music, to release the universe of human who went to meet one of the many tragedies in the Mediterranean: the one of a small Albanian boat overloaded with men, women and children, sank in March 1997 in front of the Italian coast. In the single act crowd the Drowned and the Saved, those who survived and those who died, their voices, their thoughts, and especially their journey to the dark, full of great anxieties and small wishes, dreams and fears, digressions, apparitions, sudden recollections.
