The Fabula Festival – Literature of the World is the biggest and most visited literary festival in Slovenia and the wider region. Produced by the Beletrina Publishing Institute in collaboration with Cankarjev dom, Cultural and Congress Centre, the festival brings together world-class authors through well-considered curatorship. The festival selects distinguished authors each year and devotes attention to promising, up-and-coming writers. In addition to hosting renowned writers and establishing contact between international literature and Slovenian audiences, translated works of the selected authors are also published as part of the festival. The festival also features an annual theoretical focus on a relevant social issue, raising sociocritical issues and addressing contemporary challenges.

Programme

Founded in 2003, Fabula Festival has hosted an impressive set of modern classics. Reflecting an evolving concept, the festival is now based on a curator’s pick of a handful of authors, who are already considered literary classics or who have made a significant mark on world literature in recent years with their work.

Accompanying Programme

The festival's highly varied accompanying programme is intended for all generations of readers. It brings everything from children's and youth programmes (Young Fabula), interactive literary installations to the public space (Fabula polis), collaborations with Slovenian publishers and bookstores (Fabula selection), projects at the intersection of literature with theatre and other art genres (Fabula outside literature), to projects establishing the festival as an incubator of new literary ideas and future literary trends (Fabula Hub), thus strengthening the space of the wider literary and social community.
