Slovenian song festival

Slovenian song festival (In Slovenska popevka) was a Slovenian music festival dedicated to a music genre known as Slovenian song (popevka) that was most popular during the 1960s and 1970s and had a similarly high standing in Slovene culture as did the Sanremo Music Festival in Italian culture. It began in 1962 and ended in 1983, with an attempt at its revival in 1998.
