Launched in 2005 by the Pekarna Magdalena Network, NagiB Experimental Movement Festival invites emerging talents from the field of contemporary dance and performance from Slovenia and abroad to present their work. Priority is given to projects which involve research and tackle the issue of the body in contemporary society. Projects taking place beyond the traditional theatre space are welcomed since the festival's aim is to transgress not only regional and national borders, but also physical and spiritual ones. The festival takes place at Pekarna Cultural Centre in Maribor, at the Small Stage of Slovene National Theatre (SNG) Maribor and at various public places round the city of Maribor.
