Where to Stay in Plovdiv During Hills of Rock

Plovdiv is one of the oldest cities in Europe, and the festival weekend is one of its busiest times of the year. The Rowing Canal is close to the city centre, so a hotel in central Plovdiv lets you combine the festival with the Old Town, the Roman Theatre and the Kapana district. Hotels fill up quickly in late July, so book your stay early.

About the Festival

Hills of Rock is organised by Fest Team Ltd. It is part of the "Heritage 2023" programme of the Plovdiv 2019 Foundation and is held with the support of Plovdiv Municipality.
