The form of music festivals has been at the forefront of the concert industry for the past two decades. Festivals are no longer just music events and celebrations of music, but with their infrastructure small towns, micro-economies that are part of a larger tourism industry, significant part of creative industries and national, regional and local economies. Slovenia, doesn’t have its own major international festival based on the models of contemporary multi-genre festivals. However, it has several internationally known genre specific festivals and multi-media festivals and smaller niche festivals, as well as a strong network of small local festivals, which, while presenting actual and trendy international music, put Slovenian artists and the scene on the international map.

A good festival program is concieved and planned at least a year in advance and builds on longer-term models. In our country, the integration of the local story is often strongly present in the narrative of the festival. Crucial for its existence, continuity and growth is to constantly monitor the scene they cover, appear at other festivals and fairs abroad, to enter international networks and to follow new names and trends at home and abroad. Except for a few, most depend on co-financing mechanisms at local and national level. Unfortunately, the sponsorship platforms necessary for the success and financial background of the festival are in Slovenia still poorly developed. Thus, co-productions, collaborations and participations in international networks are many times necessary.

Successful festival models that integrates their own unique model, strong international programmes of artists , specifity of location and collaboration with local community in our country are represented by festivals in the Soča region, internationally renowend festivals MetalDays and Punk Rock Holiday. Each builds their own specific narrative and both became known international brands with strong international audience.

This is list of Slovenian music festivals, from pop, rock, punk, metal, jazz, world music, electronic, folk, to classical and new music, experimental, festivals, that are part of international festival circuit and local ones that are significant for enriching local cultural production. This is a display of variety of our festival music scene.
