43. Days of Music

43rd Music Days will be held from July 10, 2026, at multiple locations in Herceg Novi.

The festival will ceremonially open in the Park Hall with a concert by Kamerata Herceg Novi under the baton of Ivan Velikanov. The soloist will be pianist Boris Kraljević. The opening program brings together works from different periods – from Mozart and Sibelius to contemporary composers – with an emphasis on string repertoire and contemporary orchestral interpretations.

During the festival, distinguished local and international artists, young talents, and chamber ensembles will perform. Concerts will take place in the Park Hall, at Kanli Kula, and at other city locations, connecting musical art with the city’s authentic settings. The program combines classical repertoire with contemporary interpretations by soloists, chamber ensembles, and orchestras.

Tickets are available through the usual sales channels.
