The story

Prešov Days in Prešov

Dni mesta Prešov, Prešov Days, runs alongside the Prešovský trojičný jarmok, the city's Trinity fair, turning the historic centre into a five-day programme of concerts, folk performances, craft stalls, culinary tastings and family activities each June, closing with a major headline concert on the main square.

Prešov, the largest city in eastern Slovakia's Šariš region, holds two overlapping traditions on the same June dates: the Prešovský trojičný jarmok, a Trinity fair rooted in the Christian liturgical calendar, and Dni mesta Prešov, a modern civic celebration marking the city's own identity.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

What sets Prešov Days apart from a typical municipal celebration is its dual identity: it combines a modern city-anniversary festival with the centuries-old Trinity fair tradition, giving the event both contemporary concert bookings and a genuine market heritage

02

The mystery stays covered

The programme mixes municipal civic elements, such as an open house at the mayor's office and a historic vehicle exhibition by the Veterán Šariš club, with folk ensemble performances from groups like FS Šarišan, making it as much a showcase of local institutional life as a party
