As neither the musical programme nor other festival's aspects conform to the norms of commercial viability, Sajeta is having continuous financial difficulties. It has recently shortened the musical programme, more extensively favouring it's creative camp component.
History
Zasnovano by a group of young enthusiasts from the town Tolmin, združeni in Kud Karma Koma association, the creative camp was at firsta weekend long event based on artist workshops. A number of artists and performers gathered there in 1998 and 1999, but then for the next two years the project potihnil. In 2002, the Tolmin Union of Youth Associations relaunched the festival and expanded it with musical and multimedia programme.
After that, Sajeta gradually became a renowned, week-long festival with a (more or less) ambitious musical programme, film screenings, drama performances and literary readings, generating a creative atmosphere unlike any other summer festivals and strongly differentiating from the other, much more commercially successful and genre profiled events that are also taking place on the (idyllic) Sotočje penisula. That in itself has in the last decade became the prime spot for summer music festivals and, among others, hosts Metalcamp
