Plovdiv lights up. Across 16 downtown venues, every drink comes with a limited collectible coaster, and the menu features six signature cocktails inspired by the two festivals. A QR code on each table opens the full programme and the map of locations.
The festival zone downtown
The PhillGood Month festival zone opens on Stefan Stambolov Square — the spot for official festival merch, meetups and info about the whole programme. Every evening the façade of the Boris Hristov House of Culture turns into a festival screen.
Official Merch Zone
The merch zone runs until 15 July — official PhillGood and Hills of Rock festival merch only. Here you also grab the free 62-page bilingual booklet: full programme, city guide and routes around Plovdiv.
