International
Jazz Festival “Dr. Emil Iliev”

The most prestigious jazz forum in Bulgaria is an integrating part of the cultural calendar of Samokov and a major attraction for tourists during the summer in Chamkoria – the oldest ski resort on the Balkan Peninsula.

The energy of the majestic Rila Mountain and the music of beloved Bulgarian and foreign jazz performers turn into one whole and create a sense of freedom and strength. And you, dear friends, and your enthusiastic applause fill the meaning of the festival with content and give us – the organizers, reason to believe that this jazz event must exist and endure over the years, because it has only one goal: to create joy and aesthetic enjoyment of music for its lovers and tourists in the resort complex.
