The festival includes in its (competition and side) programme performances of all genres and formats, while the performances are selected by a selector who travels to see all potentially eligible performances and then selects 6 to 8 performances which are invited to the festival, plus the best performance of the Visions Festival of Young Theatre Groups. Besides Slovenian amateur theatre groups, performances by Slovene minorities living in Austria, Croatia, Hungary, or elsewhere are eligible for the festival. Participation in the Linhart Encounter enables the groups to raise the quality of their work, network, and exchange and develop their ideas further.
In the side programme, the festival offers round tables and discussions, workshops, as well as hosts international amateur theatre groups. The international jury confers the Matiček Awards for the best performance, best actor and best actress in the lead and supporting roles, and may confer up to 3 awards for special achievements. At the festival, the Public Fund for Cultural Activities of the Republic of Slovenia also presents the Linhart Badge for outstanding achievements in non-professional theatre.
