Description
One of Slovakia’s most effective ambassadors of cultural diplomacy is the Slovak Philharmonic Orchestra. In the summer of 2026, the Slovak Philharmonic has been invited to tour Japan for the fifteenth time since 1980. While 30th edition of Pohoda begins on 8 July — extended this year by an additional opening day featuring a concert by The Cure — numerous other festivals will also be taking place across Slovakia. One of them is the Kvantum Festival, held in the village of Podhradie beneath Topoľčany Castle.
