Festivals in Lake Bled

Discover the best events and festivals happening in Lake Bled this Summer.
We love picture-perfect Lake Bled, with its fairytale castle, dreamy lakeside views, and of course, the famous Bled cream cake. Whether you’re after a peaceful stroll or a bit of excitement, there’s something for everyone.
Summer brings the lakeside promenade to life with food stalls, live music, and an atmosphere that perfectly complements the stunning surroundings.
For a full list of events during your visit, check out the official Lake Bled tourist website.
Summer Festivals in Lake Bled
Festival Bled

Picture this: over 2,000 musicians from around the globe descending upon the shores of Lake Bled.
It's a musical takeover like no other. Whether you’re into classical tunes or jazz beats, the International Music Festival Bled will have something to get your toes tapping.
And with venues like a festival hall with a lake view and the majestic Bled Castle, you'll experience music with a backdrop that's simply breath-taking.
Bled Days

Experience the magic of Lake Bled during its most vibrant festival, Bled Days.
Held annually in the second half of July, this celebration brings together the best of Slovenian folklore, delicious local flavours, and lively music. Shop for handmade crafts, and dance to lively music.
Candle Lights on The Lake
As the festival reaches its peak, prepare for an unforgettable spectacle: Bled Night.
On this special evening, 15,000 candles nestled in eggshells create a tapestry of shimmering lights across the lake.
It’s a beautiful sight.
Alongside this unique spectacle, Zdraviliške Park often hosts a vibrant Arts and Crafts Fair, offering you the chance to explore local artistry.
Be sure to book your Lake Bled holiday early, as this popular festival draws crowds near and far.
Medieval Days at Bled Castle

The Medieval Days at Bled Castle bring the past to life with a vibrant mix of activities, performances, and workshops. From May 26–31, 2025, the castle park hosts a medieval camp with knightly challenges, workshops, and entertainment for all ages.
The Medieval Holiday Camp offers participants a chance to immerse themselves in medieval skills and traditions, while the 16th Medieval Days (June 1–2, 2025) bring the event to its peak with arts and crafts fairs, medieval performances, and a lively atmosphere.
While entry to the castle park is free, visitors can explore the castle itself for a fee. Set against breathtaking views of Lake Bled, this event is a must for anyone looking to experience Bled's rich history in a fun and interactive way.
