Bratislava will once again be brightened by contemporary art! On the first weekend of October, from 02 October to 04 October 2026, the well-known and lesser-known places of Bratislava will be filled with art, people and a magical atmosphere.
Biela noc (White Night) will be a sensory-enchanting walk through the capital, which will enliven the architecture of the city for three days with the works of well-known Slovak and foreign artists. You will discover interesting urban places in public space, but also well-known or lesser-known interiors.
Don’t sleep, enjoy the experience!
