Candle Lights on The Lake

As the festival reaches its peak, prepare for an unforgettable spectacle: Bled Night.

On this special evening, 15,000 candles nestled in eggshells create a tapestry of shimmering lights across the lake.

It’s a beautiful sight.

Alongside this unique spectacle, Zdraviliške Park often hosts a vibrant Arts and Crafts Fair, offering you the chance to explore local artistry.
