Vinarium Festival: Bogračfest 2025

In the old town center of Lendava, among the historic backdrop of bourgeois houses and at the foot of the picturesque Lendava vineyards, the largest bograč cooking competition in Slovenia has been taking place for over two decades. The competing teams have been busy cooking since the morning hours with the aim of preparing the popular stew to the best of their ability. The prepared dishes are evaluated by an expert committee, which awards awards to the most successful chefs. However, the committee does not only evaluate the tastiest bograč, but also awards a special prize to the team with the most beautifully decorated competition venue. The event is actually a culinary festival, where, in addition to bograč, a traditional wine-growing dish prepared in kettles on Glavna ulica by competing teams, other local delicacies are also served: Lendava pretzels, crackling cakes... And with this varied culinary offer, we must not forget the pride of winegrowers, the September wine that sparkles in the glasses of Bogračfest visitors.
