Bufeto Institute is the first professional institute in Slovenia to introduce and develop the theatre of clown – a synthesis of clowning, circus skills, and acting. By merging circus traditions with dramaturgical principles, they question the boundaries of classical theatre as well as those of a typical circus show. They produce their own pieces and run an educational program, offering courses and symposiums led by nationally and internationally renowned teachers. Since 2008, they have organized the Klovnbuf Festival, an international Festival of New Circus and Contemporary Clown, which takes place each year in Ljubljana, usually in June, at indoor and outdoor venues.

Klovnbuf Festival is a festival of laughter that is to be taken seriously, as it brings together theater and circus arts and artists. The aim of the festival is to allow Slovenian audiences to encounter the most up-to-date trends and watch the most interesting shows of contemporary circus from all over Europe and beyond. Klovnbuf presents a variety of shows for general audiences of all ages and offers master classes and courses for those who have a creative interest in the contemporary circus.
