Festivities are divided into several types. Their names are connected with the organizers and their activities. In various forms, annual entertainment events have developed customs and practices linked with tourist events. During these occasions, visitors are not merely observers of the events but more and more often participants. Those are usually public festivities augmented by programs in which old farm chores and occupations are presented.
Great emphasis is placed on local foods and drinks.
In some places, popular tourist days and tourist weeks are organized which combine the most various educational and social elements characteristic of the place or the region. There are frequently exhibitions, processions, or parades with presentations of farm occupations, etc. One such events is the Week of Beer and Flowers in La ko. There are numerous sporting events during the summer that from year to year have incorporated an increasing number of ritual elements and can be treated as customs and practices of the modern time. One of the best known parades in Slovenia is the Parade with Presentations of Farm Work, Occupations, and Domestic Crafts organized annually during the international agricultural fair held in Gornja Radgona.
