Metelkova is home of Ljubljana’s alternative scene, home of artists, musicians and similar crowd. Created with transforming and rebuilding ex army barracks whose walls now serve as canvas for street artists and its outdoor space as contemporary forma viva, surprise every time with new installations and creations. Here architecture has its own rules.

People gather here mostly because of numerous music events, but also just to drink a beer and hang out with friends. There is always something going on, especially before and after summer break, when the weather is nice and people crave for an outdoor happening.

The place itself is a conglomerate of different clubs (Gala Hala, Channel Zero, Klub Gromka…), galleries (Alkatraz, Mizzart), hostel (Celica) and bars (Jalla Jalla…).

In Jalla Jalla you can get the cheapest beer in the city (hurray!) and if it is your first time in Slovenia you just have to try delicious honey schnapps called Medica, or a red liquor shot called Medvedova kri (bears blood).
