 Held at the Aerodrom near Novo Mesto, Rock Otočec is the country’s largest summer music festival. It combines rock with blues, world music and other genres. Performers at the 2003 festival included Living Color, the Fun Lovin' Criminals, Asian Dub Foundation and many more (over 40 bands). Novo Mesto is located 70 kilometres from the Slovene capital Ljubljana and also 70 kilometres from the Croatian capital Zagreb. The festival area can accommodate up to 30,000 visitors. It is famous for its games in the mud and is thus claimed to be a kind of Slovene Woodstock. |
