Dragana Mirkovic packs the 'Dubocica' hall on return from US tour

Dragana Mirkovic performed on Saturday, May 23, at the “Dubocica” hall in Leskovac, with an 8 p.m. start, according to ticket seller tickets.rs, which sold tickets at prices from 2,000 dinars upward. The concert is part of the current season the singer opened on March 20 with a New York show, the first stop on a short US tour organized by the Austrian house Dragana Music.

According to its own statement, the management team that handles the singer says the Leskovac concert was its second show this year in the “smaller indoor venues” tier, after a concert in Kraljevo last month. The “Dubocica” hall has a capacity of about 4,500, and in the same season has already hosted several regional performers.

The setlist she played in Leskovac included, judging by a fragment of audience video posts, the hits “Kraljica srca” (Queen of Hearts), “Operisano srce” (Operated Heart) and “Pucajte mi u srce” (Shoot Me in the Heart), as well as a block of 1990s songs from the albums “Placi zemljo” and “Ostani”. The singer also teased several songs from her latest album, released last spring.

A statement from Mirkovic’s management did not reach our portal before publication, but the singer thanked the Leskovac audience on her Instagram profile with a clip from the end of the show. After the Leskovac date, Mirkovic also announced a Sava Centar appearance in the autumn part of the year, with a date the ticketing platform has not yet publicly released.

The singer has been building her career since 1984 as a member of the Banat ensemble “Juzni vetar”, then launched her solo career in the late 1980s. In recent years, the bulk of her calendar has consisted of standalone large indoor concerts across Europe and North America, with a focus on the diaspora, alongside her solo shows in Belgrade.

In her private life, the singer lives in Austria, where she relocated with her family more than two decades ago, which is part of the reason her seasonal tours of Serbia run through one-off concert dates rather than longer runs. Her record label Dragana Music is based in Vienna.

After Leskovac, the singer has scheduled appearances at the “Kraljevica” sports hall in Zajecar in June and at the Belgrade Arena for autumn 2026, per tickets.rs and dragana.at. Her New Year’s Eve 2026 party, organized by the Austrian company, will be held in Vienna, with a date the ticketing platform is announcing for the first week of December for sale.
