Highlights from the past
For many years this non-profit summer festival combines literature with music and theatre. Starting with 12 afternoon events and 23 concerts in 2002, the number of events in 2010 exceeded expectations after reaching more than a hundred.
For the first time in 2006 the festival expanded to other Slovene regions, with the photographic exhibition Sahara - Contemporary Nomads by Tuareg photographer Mohamed Souleyman from Niger being presented at Murska Sobota Regional Museum.
In 2010, the year when Ljubljana was nominated for the World Book Capital, the Festival spread to other locations outside the city (including villages Šmartno and Medana). In the same year Fantazija express was introduced - a travelling bookshop and a stage on wheels inspired by the writer Frane Milčinski Ježek.
International dimensions
With many international guest writer and musicians, the Festival celebrates the universal message of written and spoken words. In 2006 the Festival presented its programme in several thematic areas, one of them being The Continents (Africa, Sahara, India, Homelessness, The Unknown).
