Wintertime in Ribnica is something special
The festive season is called festive for a reason. This is a time of merrymaking, socialising, fun, good mood and gifts. During this time, Christmas decorations in towns and villages are a sight to behold and Ribnica is particularly beautiful. And there’s no shortage of events and things to do either – there is a month-long programme of events and plentiful opportunities for fun get-togethers for young and old alike. You can decorate a Christmas tree or make your own holiday greeting cards, attend concerts by various bands, have fun ice skating with your children, see the Christmas and New Year's fair at the Ribnica Castle, tour our exhibitions and count down to the New Year while listening to live music.
