From coworking haven to global festival — history of #bnf

Bansko Nomad Fest began in 2020 as a dream to create a unique coworking space for remote workers and entrepreneurs. Fueled by community spirit and a shared passion for innovation, it evolved into a premier event for digital nomads and beyond. Now, a new crew is taking the helm, ready to elevate the experience with even more focus on collaboration, engagement, and transformative connections.

Announcement of new conductors

We all, Marcos, Richard, Mahsa, Seth, Holger, Stefan, Philipp, Cristian, and Uwe are proud to announce to be the new crew that is very excited to host the festivals next edition in 2024, June 23–30. As one of the largest digital nomad festivals globally, the event signifies a new phase in the growth of this vibrant community, adjust the vision to emphasise more on the experience of the attendees, put more professionalism in the foreground by elevating the community aspect, engagement between attendees, and thus allow more collaboration and over all offer more value. At one of the lowest price range for a one week conference, an outstanding program, with outstanding speakers, sponsors and attendees, this is a no brainer if you are interested in professional & personal development, and in genuine connections with a group that you can hardly imagine present at one place. It is a playground for people who live a lifestyle that does not know average.

We are so happy that Amber Daughn takes on the challenging task of Event Management and brings in a fresh breeze that will spark many more outstanding event activities and experiences. One of the most undercited names is Cvetelina though, who as local counterpart has shown many times that without her help and her engagement the event would not have been so successful — thank you for all your work, Cvetelina, we are so honoured to have you on our side!
And a big thank you to all our helpers, supporters, and amazing attendees — it would not be possible without you all!
