At least 10 organized activities are held per week, which young people can attend. Almost every weekend there is a concert from different musical genres. As a youth center we are focused on young people, who have advantages when organizing events and projects, but organisers and visitors vary from age 8 to 60. Youth center Koper is an open minded and very inclusive place. It is open for anyone who wishes to have active free time and anyone who wants to get new skills and knowledge in a fun way.
