National Flag Day in Slovenia is observed every April 7, commemorating the anniversary of the first exposure of the Slovenian flag in 1848. This day marks the raising of the Slovene tricolor, which consists of three horizontal bands of white, blue, and red, by a group of students led by poet Lovro Toman in Ljubljana. The colors are part of the Pan-Slavic tradition, officially defined by the Prague Slavic Congress in 1848. Although it is not a public holiday, official ceremonies are often held on the Sunday closest to April 7. The current flag was adopted on June 25, 1991, featuring the Slovenian coat of arms on the upper hoist side. The celebration emphasizes national pride and historical significance, reflecting Slovenia's cultural heritage.
