This rock 'n' roll of flavours is orchestrated by chefs and musicians from Maribor. Accompanied by excellent wines and flavours, you will discover music from the days when Maribor was the capital of Slovenian rock 'n' roll.
The event begins at the Old Vine House, where the oldest vine in the world grows.
The bubbles of the Stara Trta (Old Vine) sparkling wine, produced at the Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences in nearby Hoče, will caress your throat while you listen to a rock song by the local rock group Lačni Franz called Praslovan, which every Slovenian can sing. This rosé sparkling wine with a subtle aroma and berry flavour is made from hand-picked grapes of the Blue Pinot variety using the traditional method of producing sparkling wines.
The smell of freshly brewed coffee wafts through the streets of the charming old town centre of Maribor. The next stop is the HI KO FI café, where Maribor’s first barista will serve up an afro beat and a cup of fragrant seasonal speciality coffee sourced from all over the world but roasted in-house. The coffee is actually prepared in two different ways: espresso and cold brew.
Before your next glass of wine, you will visit the digital culinary table at the Maribor Regional Museum. You can explore the festive menus of different historical periods and gain insight into the changes that have taken place at and around the table. The feasts of the nobility, the festive lunches of the bourgeoisie and the sumptuous repasts of the peasants will come to life before your eyes.
The LeVino pleasure wine bar hides up to 70 varieties of excellent local wines, including boutique wines from winemaker Bartol, who listens to a new rock album with every vintage of his wine. You can sample three wines, including an orange wine. As wine goes with food, you will be served a selection of local cheeses from the Selinšek farm near Maribor: fresh cheese, aged cheese and aged fenugreek cheese, accompanied by excellent rye or white bread from the local Hiša Kruha bakery. The cheese snack is served on glass trays made from recycled bottles at the local art workshop Štok Wenzel.

It starts with a visit to GT22, a creative alternative art centre. This is the abbreviation for Glavni Trg 22 in Maribor, the address of a large town house with a floor area of a thousand square metres. A few years ago, an experiment started in this house that is almost unique in Slovenia. GT22 has become a laboratory for creativity, art, culture, urban sports and other interdisciplinary activities in the city. It can only be visited by appointment, which makes a visit to its large terrace with an exquisite view of the Drava River and the green Pohorje hills all the more special.
Finally, the climax of the rock experience begins. A unique and wild chef will take you through a spicy performance to 21st century cuisine. Lunch at the Mak Restaurant is always a unique culinary experience. There is no menu, only chef David Vračko, who is always full of surprises. In 2019, he received the title Chef of the Future by the Slovenian edition of the French guide Gault & Millau, while his restaurant was awarded a Michelin Guide Award in 2020, 2021 and 2022.
This rock experience full of tasty delicacies will end with lunch and then the guide will take you to the starting point of the Maribor Symphony, the Old Vine House.
