First organized in 2001, the Noise Festival is a festival of experimental and noise aesthetics. Offering concerts, video performances and lectures since the beginning, the festival was eventually enhanced with a photography exhibition, workshops, a second hand market and by a late night DJ program. Thus and in spite of its name, the festival - sometimes also called Noisefest - is much more than just a noise music event.

Even music-wise, the presented sound art ranges from noise and industrial music to sludge rock, death metal, ambient and various other forms of avant garde sonic expression. The artists come from the whole world, and besides Europeans, there are also guests from Japan, Australia, USA, Cambodia, Canada, Turkey etc.

Besides presenting an explicitly alternative artistic production, a big emphasis is given on the DIY ethics and aesthetics. As such, it is also a festival of DIY culture, and even the daily meals for the artists and the audience are made on spot at Metelkova.


The festival is organised by the DRMK - Collective for Development of Youth Culture, a well-known presenter of alternative music events. For the first five years, the festival was taking place in Klub Gromka, but has since then relocated and moved to Klub Menza pri koritu.
