Festival Lent is the largest international and intercultural festival in Slovenia. It brings energy, a diverse program, and unforgettable experiences to Maribor at the beginning of summer every year. Traditionally, it kicks off at the end of June, transforming the city along the Drava River with concerts, theater performances, dance shows, culinary delights, and more.

Before the main festival, Lent before Lent offers a unique series of events spread throughout the year. These events prepare visitors for the upcoming Festival Lent 2025 and maintain Maribor's vibrant cultural rhythm.
