After last year's successful tour, David Gilmour, ex-guitarist and singer of Pink Floyd, returns to the music stage. Last year we had the opportunity to see him in Pula, but this year we will be able to go to his concert in Vienna. Three years ago, we were able to see a concert by Roger Waters, the second of the two singers of this group and the main author of the famous album The Wall. Although it is no longer possible to see the band in its original line-up, it is definitely worth tasting at least the remaining pieces of one of the most important psychedelic rock bands of all time.
American musician Chan Marshall, better known in the music world as Cat Power, will perform in Slovenia for the first time on September 10, 2016.

Over the next two years, Marshall released albums Dear Sir and Myra Lee with Steve and Tim.
Deepwater Horizon is a disaster biopic based on the true events of the oil rig of the same name in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, when the largest oil environmental disaster in American history took place. Whether the filmmakers want to give the disaster a human face and partially erase the black stain from the main culprit, the company BP, which is not mentioned by name in the film, is not known, but the film definitely bets on the heroism of the individual and the power of love, and looks for sympathy from the audience, which may be it also overflows on the connection between the people and BP. The film stars Mark Wahlberg, Kate Hudson, John Malkovich, Gina Rodriguez and Kurt Russell.
SladoLent was a peripheral event of the Lent Festival six years ago, but today it is hard to imagine Lent without it.

Between June 24 and July 2, 2016, it will host as many as 27 chefs who will once again turn Maribor into the culinary capital of Slovenia.
