Festival of love

Festival of love is a literary festival flirting with music and visual arts, all within the realm of love. 

As the name suggests, the Festival of love is full of inspiration; each year choosing a new Slovenian castle as its residence. The premiere festival in 2008 was hosted by the castle in Svečina, and last year the city core of the oldest and one of the prettiest Slovenian cities, Ptuj was immersed in love during the last weekend in March.
The main focus of the Festival of Love will be on literature, yet other types of art that are close to the theme will be given space as well. Until 2012, when Maribor and its partner cities are the European Capital of Culture, the festival is planned to be established as a traditional literary event in Slovenia, gradually acquiring an international air. The long-term vision for the festival incorporates cross-border integration as regards both artists and visitors, the base for which will already be established this year.
