Števerjan Festival of folk music was launched back in 1971 in Števerjan, an idyllic border village set on the Italian side of the wine growing Brda region and mostly populated by a Slovene speaking community. With only Ptuj Festival being its elder, this festival is one of the pioneering ones in presenting a competing line-up of folk pop music ensembles who perform polka and waltz tunes, new ones as well as already existing ones from the genres standards.


The festival nowadays lasts for three days. After the first two days, an international jury chooses the best ones from who then play on the final evening. It has about two dozen of ensembles on stage and in the end bestows a number of awards (for best the melody, lyrics, début and so on) upon the most remarkable ones. A few of them are also chosen to venture to the Alpen Grand Prix festival in Merano, Italy.

The festival is recorded by Radio-Television Slovenia (RTV Slovenia) and is also streamed live on the festival's website.
