Kotur Skopje

Cinema, shows & cocktails

Gordana from Skopje

About me I have worked as a journalist in the best selling weekly magazine here in Macedonia for 17 years. In these precious years, I learn a lot about myself and have met wonderful people around Europa. Those communication skills I am now implementing in my work as a booking agent for bands and artists and as a owner and manager at my company Man and Mountain. Together witg my partner music...
""Kotur" in Skopje, right in the middle of the urban jungle, is a place where you can find good art, movies, talks - a favorite among many local art lovers!"

In the center of the city Skopje, right in the middle of the urban jungle there is a place where everyone who need some good art, movies, talks... KOTUR become favourite spot for many art lovers, especially the ones who are passionate for indie cinema.

It is an old house (completely renovated by a young and ethusiastic team) which is located in the Forum square, a very quiet small area in the center of the city. The  three-floored floors house offers a variety of art-entertainment: the lower floor is reserved for movie lovers and there is an amazing small cinema room, where people can see great films from the alternative and world indie movie scene. We just grab the drinks and popcorn and enjoy! The first floor is for cocktail pleasure, where a very cute bar is located and where you can get your unique concoction, or you can seat on the cosy seats and get some work done on your laptop. The third floor is for loud talks and parties, in the space designed with a touch of '70s design mixed with urban elements.

But the most interesting part of KOTUR is the yard outside where many shows have been held during summer. It was the place where many international bands played and that music was enjoyed not just by the visitors of Kotur, but all the residents in the buildings around.

Speakeasy

Cocktails with a Macedonian twist

"Speakeasy" in Skopje isn't really illegal (in fact, maybe we should have stricter laws about alochol!) but it's this new type of retro bar I like so much.

Aero Club Skopje

Fly over the city

"Aero Club Skopje" is my preferred way of looking at Skopje. After all, 'it's perfect when you look at it from above!' Protip: remember to ride 'shotgun!'
