Sofia Design Week 2013

Summer has finally arrived in Sofia.

30+ degrees, burning sun and weekend escapades to the woods. Holiday mood is taking over but it’s still too early for vacation, the season has just started. No need to worry though. There are still some things that can take your mind off the long awaited holidays and show you a good time in Sofia. One of those things is Sofia Design Week (SDW) which kicked off on 18th June with its kids programme.

The days between 18^th and 30^th June will be filled with various events.

You will have the chance to enjoy numerous exhibitions, workshops, discussions, talks, screenings, parties, book openings and events for children.

Sofia Design Week (21 – 30 June) is an international festival for design and visual culture that takes place every year in June.

It’s also a good way to divert oneself during the hot summer days in the city. For more information on the different activities available you can browse through the festival’s website.

For most people the most exciting part of the event is the hunt for stamps from the 50 design sights of the festival. You get your stamps in a booklet where all these 50 places are indicated. In the booklet, you will find the working hours and the exact address of each exhibit location. If you manage to collect all 50 stamps within the festival days you are entered into a raffle. So, let your competitive spirit out and start exploring the city’s best design spots!
