HAUSER TO OPEN BANJALUKA FEST

Renowned musician Stjepan Hauser is set to headline the opening night of this year's "Banjaluka Fest," scheduled to take place from July 4th to 6th at the Kastel Fortress.

Known for its lavish and unique musical programs, as well as top-tier production, "Banjaluka Fest" brings some of the world's biggest and regional stars to Banja Luka. The rebellious cellist and former member of the globally popular group "2 CELLOS," also known as Hauser, stands out as one of the most authentic and sensational performers on the global stage.

Hauser showcases his talent to millions on social media platforms and mesmerizes audiences at concerts with a fireworks display of energy, romance, passion, and love—the hallmark of his extravagant cello performances.

The first part of Hauser's concert at Kastel will feature classical and film music pieces, followed by renditions of popular Latin hits such as "Let’s Get Loud," "Livin la vida loca," "Despacito," and "Señorita," accompanied by dance performances.

Moreover, he will introduce a new level of transformation, blending retro rhythms into modern dance numbers from his latest solo album "The Player," available worldwide.

This musical extravaganza will be a highlight of this year's "Banjaluka Fest," which has previously hosted renowned artists including Mariza, Jasmin Levi, Luz Kasal, Nemanja Radulović, Stefan Milenković, as well as local legends like Zdravko Čolić, Bajaga i Instruktori, Marija Šerifović, Josipa Lisac, among others.

Organizers are gearing up for premieres during the festival's second and third nights on July 5th and 6th.

"Banjaluka Fest" takes place at the Kastel Fortress, transformed exclusively for the occasion into an open-air concert venue complete with a red carpet and seating platform.
