Events and the Poetry Tournament

The publishing programme is enhanced by literary evenings, readings, book presentations, and talks with authors.

Pivec Publishing House annually organises the Poetry Tournament, where the best Slovene unpublished poem of the year is chosen. In 2012, on the occasion when Maribor held the title of the European Capital of Culture, the tournament was expanded into the European Poetry Tournament, joining poets from 6 European countries.
