Interested in checking out the nomad life? There is no better place to start than a festival!
Nomad gatherings like fests allow you to meet hundreds of nomads and make connections. It’s a great place to learn from one another, swap tips, and share ideas about remote work and global travel.
In fact, I often base my upcoming travel plans on the insider tips I get during a festival. Like when 4 friends and I met up in Mexico several months after first meeting in Bulgaria. Good times!
Here's a list of upcoming festivals in Europe this year:
June 22–29, 2025: Bansko Nomad Fest – I’ll see you there! ✨
July 20–27, 2025: Bosnia Nomad Fest
Sept 1–8, 2025: Swiss Nomad Fest
Sept 12-21, 2025: Athens Nomadfest
Sept 13–20, 2025: Irish Digital Nomad Conference & Fest
Dec 6–13, 2025: Snomadfest Switzerland
