Plovdiv Wine and Gourmet Festival
The centerpiece of Plovdiv's 2025 European Wine Capital programme: a three-day May festival in the UNESCO-listed Old Town where a Dionysian opening procession leads wine lovers through cobblestone streets to cellars poured by Bulgaria's best producers. Held over the spring, with a second 'Young Wine' edition in November when new vintages are released. Bulgaria's dramatic Thracian Valley and Rhodope Mountain wines are emerging on the world stage — this is where to discover them.
