The Mladi levi Festival (in English: Young Lions Festival) is an annual international festival of contemporary performing arts, organized by the Bunker Institute. It presents original approaches to theatre and dance, focusing on talented and emerging stage performers, along with presenting already established progressive authors. It takes place every end of the summer and was initiated in 1998 under the auspices of the international network Junge Hunde.
The festival has a distinctive atmosphere marked by creativity, vibrancy, and a social nature. It is an interdisciplinary place of exchange and cooperation, extending beyond the habitual local or international concepts.
