I did arrive on a Sunday evening on one of my visits to Ljubljana. There were restaurants open, which is more than I can say about Celje, a city I'd stopped at off the train on my way from Maribor. Celje was totally empty, like a ghost town, on a Sunday. Slovenia is a largely Catholic country - I assume that has a lot to do with it. A big attraction of Ljubljana
But as kja says, I'd base my decision on exactly what you want to see/do in Ljubljana and if things you want to do aren't available on Sunday, consider changing your plans. In many countries, Monday or Tuesday is the day museums are closed (if that's a factor). In fact, my "whole day" in Ljubljana on that same visit was a Monday and most of the museums were closed on Monday - plus it rained! I'm lucky I'd already been to Ljubljana before, though. I did visit a museum in Celje on that Sunday, so I assume museums are open on Sunday in Ljubljana too, but check the schedules of course.

Thanks to both of you. Museums appear to be open, but I was worried things might be closed up. We were in southern France a year ago, and on Sundays ugly metal shutters were rolled down over windows. It totally changed the look of the towns.
