Summer festivals in the factory yard
About Tobačna yard & ČinČin
The yard of the former Tobačna factory, on Tržaška cesta west of the centre, is a favourite meeting place for lovers of jazz and urban culture. In good weather music and events happen outdoors under the trees, moving into the ČinČin bar when it rains; in summer the yard hosts several music and creative festivals, and most events are free to enter. Our advice: check the bar’s social media for what is on.
