OpenFest is the biggest Bulgarian conference dedicated to free culture, free knowledge sharing, free and open source software. It is the most anticipated annual gathering of fans, creators and supporters of open source and free art in Bulgaria.

The purpose of OpenFest is to promote projects created with free and open software and to provide a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices in the field. Themes related to free/open art also have their reserved spot in the festival’s program.

The slogan of OpenFest is “Let’s share the freedom!“

The first OpenFest happened in 2003 in Sofia and since then it is has been held every year – sometimes in several Bulgarian cities simultaneously.

The organizer of OpenFest is the Open Projects Foundation, supported by the whole free/open source community in Bulgaria, many partners, sponsors, and friends.

OpenFest is a holiday that we share with others – OpenFest is a gift to all who help us make it happen. Join us!
