After a break of several years, Ansambel Modrijani brought Noč Modrijanov back on a new scale: two sold-out evenings at Dvorana Stožice in Ljubljana, more than 20,000 visitors and around a thousand performers on stage. The four-hour programme ran through 99 musical and dance numbers, with guests ranging from the legends of Slovenian popular music to young ensembles.
The production matched the ambition. A stage more than 19 metres high and over 50 metres wide, lifting platforms able to raise fifty performers at once and more than a thousand lights turned the arena into a single moving set, held together by the motif of the honeycomb and the bee. The message of the evening was community, care for one another and responsibility towards the environment. The photographs move between the full scale of the hall and the performers at its centre.
Performance: 24 September 2026, Dvorana Stožice, Ljubljana.
