A week-long celebration of the remote lifestyle featuring curated conference sessions, networking, community led skill shares and many fun and interactive activities. The mountain environment provides the perfect atmosphere to build relationships, whether personal or professional.
A premier two-day event designed exclusively for trailblazers, innovators, and decision-makers in the digital nomad space. Held right before Bansko Nomad Fest, this forum offers a focused, intimate environment to collaborate and drive innovation within the nomad community.
Bansko is a compact, walkable city - the event locations are all within an easy 5 minute walk from each other. Click on the page to see where they are & some special deals that we've been able to secure for those who are attending the festival.
Bansko's coworking spaces form the heart of the Bansko nomad ecosystem so we’re very pleased that they are all partnering with Nomad Fest and supporting this year’s Nomad Fest. At Bansko Nomad Fest you can get an introduction to each of the spaces and those buying tickets will be given access to special deals if they want to combine coworking with their time in Bansko.
Our program features over 50+ engaging speakers on 2 stages. These are curated to be topical, informative and inspirational.
Un-conferences
We have 100 participant led unconference sessions covering a wide range of topics - if there's something you want to discuss this is your chance to put it on the agenda and find other nomads to collaborate with.
Activities
Our program includes a wide range of activities. Many of these are included in the ticket price, such as hiking, games, fitness, yoga, while others such as our now famous hot-Springs pool parties are optional add-ons.
Parties
There's much to be said for the serious part of a conference, but sometimes the best connections are made at the end of a long day. Bansko has become famous for some epic parties - the hot-springs pool parties and bonfires stand out. This year will be no exception!
Networking
The event is perfect for networking - we have a variety of lunch, dinner and drinks events programmed in, or participants have the freedom to engage in spontaneous meet-ups.
The Park Stage
The park stage will be bigger & better this year. It will still feature an entertainment program but this year will have more workshops, activities and some new "corners" focused on interaction - a games corner, a creative corner and a networking corner.
Last year 700 nomads converged on our charming mountain town for a week filled with unforgettable experiences, fostering an atmosphere of extreme FOMO. A plethora of new connections, activities, and events were condensed into one extraordinary week, showcasing the magic we create collectively.
