The Fabula Festival of Stories has been organised since 2004 by Študentska založba Publishing House in collaboration with Dnevnik Publishing House, and Postojnska jama turizem PLC. The underlying concept of Fabula has been to promote readership and the culture of reading in Slovenia. The main focus of the festival is no longer on short stories but on storytelling in general; in addition to book presentations and evening readings, the festival features screenings of films adapted from short stories. Besides renowned European story writers, numerous Slovene authors are featured in the festival, which also includes the bestowal of the Fabula Award for the best Slovene book of short stories. In 2010 Fabula was one of the central festival events in the frame of the World Book Capital Ljubljana 2010.


The Fabula Festival takes place in several cities round Slovenia. In 2010 the events are organised in Ljubljana (Cankarjev dom, Kinodvor Cinema, the City Museum of Ljubljana, the Slovene Ethnographic Museum, and Beletrina Bookshop); Maribor (Synagogue Cultural Centre); Ptuj (Ivan Potrč Library); Ribnica (Mikl House Library); Koper (Dom knjige Bookshop); and Trieste, Italy.

The 3rd Fabula Festival of 2006, for example, took place in Ljubljana, Maribor, Postojna, Izola and Koper. In three weeks the festival hosted 10 world-famous writers – Milorad Pavić from Serbia, Miljenko Jergović, Krešimir Mišanović, Krešimir Bagić and Robert Perišić from Croatia, Claudio Magris and Diego Marani from Italy, Georgi Gospodinov from Bulgaria, Kader Abdolah from the Netherlands, and Toby Litt from the United Kingdom – who presented their work at more than 20 literary events. A public discussion entitled "Dramatisation of Novels" took place at the Slovene National Theatre Drama Ljubljana, followed by the play Severni sij [Northern Lights] by Drago Jančar, performed by the Slovene National Theatre Maribor and directed by Mile Korun. Also accompanying the festival were a panel discussion about Slovene and Croatian fiction entitled Jeziki mesta [Urban Languages], and a conference on film stories. In 2007 the theme of the festival was "Death" and the festival featured some panel discussions involving artists, doctors, sociologists, and anthropologists.
