Bratislava is a popular flight destination year round, with romantic seclusion in the winter (December to February) and a wonderfully warm climate in the summer (June to August), the city has something for everyone. Classical music lovers should visit Bratislava in late autumn to experience the well-established Bratislava Music Festival which offers a program of first-class music performances from Slovakian and international orchestras, soloists and conductors. If jazz is more your thing, book flights to Bratislava in October, so you can enjoy Bratislava Jazz days. October is a great time to book a flight to Bratislava for many reasons, in particular you can experience a growing jazz celebration that attracts musicians and music fans from across Europe and further afield. However during these two music events cheap flights to Bratislava and cheap accommodation may be harder to find so book in advance.

If you want to experience Bratislava at its most vibrant, then why not visit during the annual New Year’s Eve Party? This party is free to all, and is a memorable way of welcoming in the new hopes and resolutions of the year to come.
Destination overview:
Set amid beautiful hills that hide ancient villas and old castles, Bratislava is one of the most historically exciting places to visit. Its renowned Old Town is completely free from traffic, so you can have a wonderful time exploring the streets on foot. In this city, you will find the usual municipal art galleries and museums, such as the Danubiana Meulensteen Art Museum. But take a flight to Bratislava and you will discover that it is home to some very quirky museums too, such as the Museum of Clocks and the Pharmacy Museum: both brilliant places to bring the family. In good weather, a trip down the Danube is highly recommended. Hop on one of the smooth sailing boats on the river and enjoy unrivalled views of the city. A trip down the Danube can also bring you straight to the fascinating castle ruins at Devín. This city is also a great place for exploring cafes and restaurants, and for sampling traditional Slovakian cuisine and cafe culture. Hviezdoslavovo Square is one of the most popular places for enjoying a glass of wine in a bar or a cup of coffee or hot chocolate outside a cafe. If you fancy a scenic walk, then one great idea is to hike up to the Soviet Memorial in the hills as this is the highest vantage point in the region and provides you with unrivalled views over the city.
