XXIII Festival - Budva Theatre City (Budva Grad Teatar)

This festival is an ode to the festival and cultural cult following that this town has nourished through centuries. During the period, from the begining of July to the end of August, the most representative theatrical plays from the former Yugoslavia and abroad are performed at this festival. The most celebrated names in the art of acting and play writing come to present their work in this spectacular scene, unique because the decor for all plays are Budva's ancient walls and sea. This festival is not only about drama and written word. Many musical performances and painting shows take place in Budva during the summer. In this period Budva is not only the center of fun, but also the Balkans' center of culture. Cafes become meeting points for intellectuals and artists who discuss literature and plays with inevitable bohemian nights.
