Best of Summer in Ljubljana 2019

more than a year ago

Summer took a while to come to Slovenia, and the rest of Europe, this year, but it quickly made up for its tardiness with record high temperatures around the continent. We've bravely soldiered on though, and our editorial team still managed to get together the strength to organise our annual Best of Summer in Ljubljana competition for 2019.

Locals and tourists alike voted for Ljubljana's Best Ice, Best Outdoor Activities, Best Indoor Fun, Best Craft Beer and lots more from 12 to 26 July. The winners and runners up can be found below, as well as in the Aug/Sept issue of our print guide. Thanks to everyone who voted and congratulations to all the finalists! All questions and comments can be sent to ljubljana@inyourpocket.com.
