Serbian and regional entertainment activities

Overview

The Serbian entertainment sector has seen various activities, including actor and musician Nikola Kolja Pejaković appearing on the program ‘Dok anđeli spavaju’ (While Angels Sleep). Additionally, musician Nikola Kojo and the band Girls, Boys & Toys have achieved success with their musical show, ‘Kako sam prestao da pevam pod tušem’, following a Zurich premiere and sold-out performances at mts Dvorana in Belgrade. Cultural and musical events have expanded across the Balkan region. In Serbia, Ivan Kukić and his band Sound Therapy are scheduled to perform at the MTS Dvorana in Belgrade on November 3, blending Macedonian musical heritage with rock. Other Serbian events include an opera concert by Ivan Jevčenko and Ana Čudajkina in Novi Sad and a book promotion for ‘The Doors’ by Greil Marckus in Čačak. Regional activities include the Satirical Theatre of Youth from Slavonski Brod completing a tour through Senta, Serbia, and Bitola, North Macedonia. In Croatia, actress Daria Lorenci Flatz will perform her monodrama ‘Ja, glumica!’ in Split, and Beth Gibbons is scheduled for a performance in Šibenik in July 2025. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the band Zona Isključenja has announced a concert in Goražde, while Vanesa Glođo will perform the monodrama ‘Glumica’ in Gornji Vakuf-Uskoplje. Recent developments involve the cancellation of singer Jelena Karleuša’s performance at Teatro Club Essen in Germany, originally scheduled for October 31, 2026. A dispute has emerged regarding the cause: management at Teatro Club Essen stated the cancellation followed a review of Karleuša’s public statements regarding the political situation in Serbia, asserting their stage is for music rather than ‘political propaganda.’ They specifically noted a desire to distance themselves from rhetoric that insults citizens fighting for their rights. Conversely, Karleuša claimed the cancellation resulted from ‘a high number of anonymous threats against her life.’
