Cobblers Sunday
If you’re from Tržič attending Cobblers Sunday is a must. Nowhere else do people use the expression “It was like Cobblers”. This expression is difficult to explain. It definitely means crowded, but not in a negative sense. It means a time when a lot of people gather together. They check out the stands and booths, meet up with acquaintances, celebrate, and watch all the people. The event is inseparably linked with Tržič’s main square –Pvac.
