Understanding the concept of LUV Fest

. // LUV is Tivoli Park in the snow, the silence in the Modern Gallery and the bustle of the Saturday market. // LUV is a corny selfie on Cobblers’ Bridge. // LUV is holding hands. // And a matinee film at Kinodvor. // Or Valentine's dinner at Strelec. // LUV is the candles on Gradaščica stream on St Gregory's Day, and an evening kiss in a secluded bar in Šiška. // LUV is a family of nutrias in Moste. // LUV is a visit to the zoo on a sunny February afternoon. // And all the padlocks on Butchers' Bridge. // LUV is a Tinder date at Špica. // LUV is a Mardi Gras party. // LUV is love. // LUV is Ljubljana.
