All this for a very affordable price, yet another of the festival's traits.

Besides rock music, the festival's other main theme is charity, as each year the profit goes to local community, individuals, and charitable institutions. Over the years of the festival's existence, they have donated over 200 thousand euros!

Gora Rocka is a festival that takes place in pristine nature, and therefore organizers do everything they can to minimize its impact. They serve drinks exclusively in washable cups of all sizes, mix coffee with sugar using wooden stirrers, and sip cocktails through special straws.

Rockers' Tree Alley

The biggest rock stars performing at the festival plant a tree every year. In 2023, members of the bands Laibach, Zablujena generacija, MRFY, and Slon in Sadež did so. With this, organisers aim to preserve the nature in which the festival takes place. Through the alley of trees, they give back fresh air to nature, without which there is no life, no food, no beer, and no rock!
