Punk Rock Holiday, first held in 2011, is exactly what the name promises, bringing forward 4 days of various punk rock performances. It takes place on the Sotočje peninsula in Tolmin, a place that a number of other successful festivals (Metalcamp and Sajeta Creative Camp, for instance) have proved as a fitting summer festival venue. By having the punk rock legends NOFX and Bad Religion as head-liners, this festival's first edition immediately got recognition from the local as well as international public.


Background

In recent years, two other Slovene festivals primarily focused on punk rock music, namely, the Šklab Fest and Njoki Summer Festival. The latter has been going on for 5 years and has brought to its stage in Ajdovščina a diverse set of punk, hip hop, ska and reggae musicians like Marky Ramone, The Toasters, New Riot, The BellRays, Dubioza Kolektiv, Elvis Jackson, Edo Maajka, etc. Šklab Fest is the younger of the two, but has in its two years of existence hosted names such as The Exploited, Millencolin, The Toy Dolls, The Skatalites, Jello Biafra, Down by Law and many other musicians, some of them who have already played on the Njoki festival in the past years.

Punk Rock Holiday came into being when the organisers realised that Slovenia is too small to have two similar festivals with an ambitious programme and that merging the two festivals could prove beneficial for both.
