Set up as a competition of newly composed pop music, it was similar to the [[Slovenska popevka festival]] and when the latter was put to a stop, it overtook its role in regularly providing hit songs and putting quite a few of them into the evergreens repository. The songs were - and still are - lyrically and musically focused on the themes of summer, the sea and the like. More or less since the start, the festival has been usually broadcast live on [[Televizija Slovenija]]. |
The festival has been almost continuously running since the start. While the first edition was held in Piran, later it was more or less staged at the [[Portorož Auditorium]], which is currently co-organising the festival together with [[Radio-Television Slovenia (RTV Slovenia)]]. wh also takes care of the live television transmission. | The festival has been almost continuously running since the start.
