At the international competition and festival The Golden City Gate, which rewards the excellence of promotional and communication campaigns and innovative multimedia tools in tourism, we received two gold awards for the short film Plečnik's Ljubljana and the sports video Extreme Ljubljana.

In the Culture and Art category, the gold award went to the short film Plečnik's Ljubljana, which Ljubljana Tourism developed in cooperation with the Squareme agency in honour of Plečnik's year. The film shows the masterpieces of our greatest master architect in a way that engages the viewers and invites them to visit Plečnik's Ljubljana, which is also entered on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List.

In the City category, the gold award went to the dynamic sports video Extreme Ljubljana, made by the Extrem agency. The film shows various adrenaline sports events of unique character, which visitors can experience only in our capital city.
»We are happy that creativity, which we recognize, nurture and support in the city, has also been given this internationally recognized expression, the attention of the international media and the business and general public,« said the director of Ljubljana Tourism, Petra Stušek, upon receiving the awards, adding: »We also congratulate the producers and everyone who participated in the creative design and production for the achievement and recognition of excellence, and we thank them for their support in our vision of a vibrant and creative Ljubljana.«

Over 100 works from 21 countries around the world participated in The Golden City Gate International Touristic Film-multimedia Festival and Competition, with a 45-member jury evaluating them.
