Veliko Tarnovo
Medieval capital turned college-town with a creative, multi-genre small-scene vibe.
Veliko Tarnovo's medieval old town and the Kiril and Metodiy University give the city a creative, student-driven cultural life. The metal/rock scene is small but open-minded — folk-metal crossover, acoustic heavy, and experimental bookings coexist with straight-ahead punk shows.
