The main highlight of the cultural calendar in Dubrovnik is the 45-day Summer Festival, which sweeps through the city from mid-July to late August. Most major buildings in the old town, including the Sponza Palace and the Rector’s Palace, become festival venues with theater, dance, classical music and visual arts all well represented. The highlight is the traditional performance of Shakespeare at the Lovrijenac fortress; even Serb shelling could not halt a very topical production of Hamlet during the siege. Things are quieter for the rest of the year, but there are regular
concerts and cultural performances at the Rector’s Palace, the Church of our Saviour on the Stradun and the Martin Drýiæ Theater by the Rector’s Palace. The local Lindo dance group are also highly regarded for their lively traditional performances. The Dubrovnik Symphony Orchestra (website: www.dso.hr) has a good reputation and performs regularly at various venues. Information and tickets, if not available at the venue, can usually be obtained from the local tourist office. There is also a cinema within the old city walls just by the Sponza Palace, with Hollywood films usually being subtitled rather than dubbed (no telephone number is available and there is no booking ahead).
