Every year in August, Bansko gathers together some of the best Bulgarian and international jazz singers and musicians. The festival is already a tradition and is a magical centre for meeting and exchanging ideas with other jazz fans, making friends and having fun!
At the end of August, Bansko is hosting a two-day Opera Festival. Classical music pieces together with opera are performed in the open air for the delight of the spirit in the magnificent scenery of the majestic Pirin Mountains.
