JESTIVAL: Food & Art Festival

Festival of Flavours and Art in Kobarid: discover authentic Soča Valley tastes, local products, live music, crafts and tradition.

Jestival – the festival of flavours and art is returning to Kobarid, once again bringing together the richness of local cuisine, creativity, and cultural heritage. At the heart of the festival will be the famous Kobariški štruklji, a culinary specialty that symbolically reflects the harmony between people, nature, and the surrounding landscape. At the local goods market, visitors will be able to sample a wide variety of homemade products. Alongside this, a vibrant accompanying programme will take place, including creative workshops, cultural performances, children’s theatre shows, and presentations of traditional crafts and artistic creations. For a special culinary experience, selected local restaurants will offer Jestival-themed menus throughout September and October, highlighting seasonal ingredients and innovative takes on traditional dishes. To top it all off, the evening will come alive with music by Zvita Feltna, a popular Slovenian band known for their energetic performances and catchy rhythms – the perfect way to round off a festive day. Jestival is more than just a celebration of flavours – it's a unique experience where tradition, creativity, and local pride come together. We warmly invite you to join us!   www.jestival.si
