The 9th Biennial of puppetry artists of Slovenia was held between the 13th and 16th September 2017. The festival encompassed both a competitive and an accompanying programme of Slovenian puppet performances according to the selection by Olga Vujović, and featured additional events such as talks, conferences, discussion rounds, exhibitions, installation and lectures in many fields of puppetry arts.
As a central national festival, the biennial aims to present Slovenian puppetry to the broader domestic and foreign expert public (selectors, organizers and directors of foreign festivals and theatres, theatre critics and other members of the interested public), enable an exchange of knowledge and experience, showcase the most interesting content, and to award the best creations. It is both a festival and a promotion of puppetry arts.
