{{Teaser| Established in 1993, the international Lent Festival is among the largest open-air festivals in Europe and the most massive festival of its kind in Slovenia. Each year it presents around 300 different cultural performances and events on different stages, including various styles of popular music, opera, rock, ballet, jazz, classical music, street theatre, chanson, folklore and revivalist folk, theatre, busking music, events for children, dance performances and musicals, children workshops and also sport events. It is a festival of cacophony of sounds and quantity, easy going festivities and smoky barbecues, but also occasion for quality performances at more hidden intimate venues.
The festival regularly attracts around 500,000 spectators, dispersed during 3-weeks long event at over 23 venues, improvised stages and reshaped old spaces at the banks of the Drava river. The Festival is a member of the International Festivals and Events Association (IFEA) and the [[Association of Slovene Festivals (SloFA)
