MENT Ljubljana is a music discovery festival facilitating, in symbiosis with the conference, the presentation of music performers from all over Europe and beyond in front of international music professionals and audiences. The festival serves as a meeting point for artists, music professionals and music lovers.
Its primary focus is on promoting emerging talent, fostering creativity and facilitating networking opportunities within the independent music industry. At the eleventh edition (February 2025) 82 artists from 27 countries performed across four days on 13 stages around Ljubljana. The international conference focuses on the music industry and creativity. The conference was attended by 700 foreign and local music professionals (festival organizers, concert promoters, booking agents, managers, journalists, representatives of record labels, networks, and others). The participating delegates came from more than 30 countries.
“It’s this sort of diversity and choice of quality over quantity that helps MENT live up to its moniker – a music discovery festival, indeed.” THE WIRE
