    I’M WRITING A LETTER! / To myself, to someone else, or to my inner world

    Workshop as part of LUV Fest

    People used to write long, heartfelt letters. The kind you read several times. The kind that stayed. Today we send quick “you free for a drink?” messages and emojis with more than one meaning. It’s time to pause and write something that carries weight.

    I CREATE, THEREFORE I AM ______

    Workshop as part of LUV Fest

    People once used symbols and light to express who they were and what they carried inside. Gregorčki were small floating lights on water - symbols of new beginnings, courage and the wish to show oneself as one truly is.

Love postcards to Ljubljana

During LUV fest, a very special love mailbox will appear at the TIC Ljubljana. It will become a shared place for everyone who carries Ljubljana in their heart – visitors, locals, lovers, and curious passers-by.

You are invited to write a short thought, memory, or personal message dedicated to the city. It might be a love letter to a quiet riverside street, a first kiss on a bridge, a morning coffee at the market, or a fleeting moment in Ljubljana that stayed with you.

Love Postcards are intimate messages to the city – small notes of affection, gratitude, and connection to the places, moments, and emotions that Ljubljana inspires.

Drop your message into the mailbox at the TIC and become part of the city’s love story. Because every love has its story. And so does Ljubljana.

Allow yourself to feel warmth and lightness in thought, emotion, and movement.

This 100% natural fragrance, crafted with love for nature and deep respect for local aromatic plants, was created by Ana Ličina, a renowned aromatherapist from Aroma Atelier.

IKA & LUV FEST

At the IKA store, visitors can immerse themselves in the atmosphere of LUV Fest while listening to the gentle rhythms of Bossa de Novo, the energy of Joker Out, the pulse of Masharik, and the emotional interpretations of Blaž Mencinger. Music fills the space, bringing together people, cultures, and emotions, and creating the unique spirit of the festival: a celebration of love, creativity, and community.

At IKA, they also present a carefully curated selection of products, authors, and brands from Slovenia. For them, LUV Fest is not just a musical experience, but an invitation to discover meaningful stories, thoughtful design, and local creativity.

During the festival, visitors are invited to enjoy an Equa Recharge tonic or warm up with a matchaccino, and to write down their thoughts on love, art, and wandering in a notebook with green pages and a white gel pen. Selected reflections will be shared on their Instagram profile to inspire others.

From January 24 onward, a range of special discounts will be available on selected LUV products. In addition, between February 8 and March 12, their Instagram and Facebook profiles will host a series of giveaways, giving visitors the chance to win their favorite LUV items.

Inspired by a city where love, creativity, and stories intertwine, they are also highlighting a newly and exclusively launched Ljubljana A5 notebook: a tribute to a city that invites wandering, reflection, and the quiet, everyday moments of love.
