Various Brda producers (wine and Brda cuisine producers) are also involved in this event. The festival is the meeting point for local artists and representatives of numerous Brda cultural societies. In short, rich variety of events (workshops, trainings, concerts,..) for all music enthusiasts. All are invited to the 14th edition of BCMF! The Brda Contemporary Music Festival returns to the heart of Brda, in the ex cinema in Medana, from September 12th to 14th. Once again, the festival focuses on creating a meeting point between the Italian-Slovenian and international scene, as well as bringing together young musicians with established artists, and combining music with visual art and poetry.
