About Festivalgelände Metalcamp
Welcome to Festivalgelände Metalcamp, the iconic outdoor festival grounds located in Sotočje, Tolmin, Slovenia. Nestled between the Tolminka and Soča rivers at approximately 46.1769°N, 13.7317°E, this expansive venue has hosted legendary metal lineups and welcomed tens of thousands of fans over the years. While the site is best known for its energetic atmosphere and two festival beaches, it operates as an open, standing-room arena with large open spaces and camping areas, rather than fixed seating. Whether you’re here for a weekend of headbanging, camping, or a day trip, we’ve got you covered with practical details on seating concepts, parking, transit options, and nearby lodging and dining to help you plan a smooth, no-fuss experience.
Note: The festival historically served as a major Tolmin event, later evolving into MetalDays in 2013 and undergoing relocations and changes through 2023. Always confirm current arrangements before you travel.
Nearby Tolmin offers convenient stays and dining, with trusted options including Hotel Dvorec in the town center and Penzion Kobala in the Tolmin surroundings.
