Since 1995 held each summer in a picturesque Alpine town, the Bled Festival is a classical music festival with quite a broad horizon, thus also regularly inviting jazz, chanson or folk artists. Furthermore, concerts are but a part of its programme that has a very strong focus on young musicians. Not only does an international cast of mentors works with them via workshops and masterclasses, young and upcoming players also make up a sizeable part of the line-up.

The festival is managed by Bled Culture Institute and led by its Artistic Director of many years, the acclaimed musician Jernej Brence.
