Narodni dom Maribor

Housed in a restored late 19th-century building in the centre of Maribor, Narodni dom was established in 1992 by the Municipality of Maribor. It offers a wide range of performing arts activities, including theatre, dance and music. As an organiser, producer, and promoter, Narodni dom presents around 1,200 events each year. Each summer Narodni dom runs Maribor's major international attraction Lent Festival, which draws more than 500,000 visitors annually.

Activities

Narodni dom hosts numerous concerts of everything from traditional to electronic and dance music and prepares various music series covering orchestral, chamber and jazz, as well as theatre events including comedy, children's theatre, and youth programmes.

It also organises a range of other musical events and festivals, including the Folkart International Folklore Festival, Maribor and co-produces the Festival Maribor.
