Are you open to organize fashion parades in Postojna
Cave?
The rules of use are very specific and clear in determining what
activities and events are allowed or not allowed inside Postojna Cave, and also which a special permit needs to be obtained
for.
Fashion shows are in principle not to take place in the cave.
The key criterion for issuing permits for organization and staging of uncommon events is whether they serve the purposes
of informing the general public about the value of nature and
whether they aid in providing more in-depth knowledge about
the cave, the Karst and cave-dwelling animals. Any event of
this kind thus needs to be in connection with the cave as a
natural phenomenon or mark a historic event or some sort of
a cave jubilee. Understandably, every event has to be held in a
way that does not burden the natural environment. Events of
this kind otherwise take place at the Jamski Dvorec Mansion,
which is located right at the entrance to the cave and has in
the past hosted a number of such events.
