Did you know...
National Day in Slovenia is also known as Statehood Day, or Dan državnosti, and is celebrated on the 25th of June every year. This holiday commemorates Slovenia’s independence from Yugoslavia, which was declared in 1991.
National Day in Slovenia distinguishes itself from Independence and Unity Day. Slovenians celebrate the latter on the 26th of December to remember the 1990 official proclamation of voters choosing Slovenia’s sovereignty as a nation.
If you happen to go to Slovenia at the end of June, you have various options to mark this holiday:
- Visit the Republic Square to see the major festivities in the capital city of Slovenia.
- Watch some folk dance and hear some folk music around the city.
- Check out the National Museum of Slovenia for some Slovenian history.
Slovenia joined the European Union on 1st May 2004 and Slovenian is an official language of the Union.
