With a deep cold spell coming on, it’s time to start dreaming about … outdoor festivals?
You’d better believe the planners of these much-anticipated events are on the job. We usually run our festival guide sometime in April. But when we first started looking for this year’s dates back before New Year’s, we found that a lot of events had already nailed down their dates — and now more than two-thirds of the recurring events on our calendar have them.
So we’re giving you an early list to start you off. This lets us include some very early events such as Brite Winter and Kurentovanje, which are usually over before we publish.And it lets all of YOU get a head start on planning your summer.
If you see an event missing and they already know their 2019 dates, let us know. We’ll be publishing an updated calendar as the season gets closer.
