==Programme==
The centre's activities are divided into four main parts: theatre, music, musical theatre and a programme for children. All are available on a subscription basis. At the centre, one can see theatre performances by local groups as well as touring performances by Slovene theatre houses such as [[Slovene National Theatre Drama Ljubljana|SNG Drama Ljubljana]], [[Ljubljana City Theatre (MGL)]] or [[Slovene National Theatre Nova Gorica|SNG Nova Gorica]] as well as performances from domestic and international musicians with [[Slovene Philharmonic Orchestra]], Bill Evans and Mitteleuropa Orchestra amongst others. The centre also serves as a venue for jazz concerts which are part of [[Jazzinty]]  international summer jazz festival and musical workshop that has been taking place annually in the historic city centre of Novo mesto for twenty years.


==Venue==
The main hall has a capacity of 366 seats and is suitable for concert and dance performances, technically less demanding theatre plays, film screenings, conferences and meetings. The [[Janez Trdina]] Cultural Centre's hall can also be rented.

==Kocka Gallery==
Within the venue, there is also an exhibition space with 80 seats available. It is suitable for smaller-scale performances and exhibitions as well as banquets and receptions. In 2019, it hosted an ongoing concert series called Kocka Out of the Box Sessions which presented a diverse selection of music performed in an intimate setting.
