Lovefest, today officially recognized as the best
regional festival of 2018, was founded in 2007 by a
group of young people from Vrnjaka Banja who
wanted to bring a world-class event to their hometown.
The very first edition took place on the famous Bridge of
Love and gathered 1,000 visitors-without any
sponsorship support. Just a year later, the festival
moved to the Summer Stage and welcomed house
music pioneer Marshall Jefferson, with attendance
growing to 6,000 people.

Since 2014, Lovefest has been held in the city park,
and today it features five stages, over 3,000
performers, and more than 25,000 visitors each day. So
far, the festival has hosted more than half a million
people from all across Europe.
