This page was originally created by users of the Punk Rock Group to provide punk travellers an access to the local scenes. So for your convenience you find a list below that consists of links to sites where you can find out what to do or who to see at the place you're going to.

Let's keep this page as DIY as possible, remember : punk rock is not for sale! (And another important thing: Keep Myspace out of punk!)

If you can help, please do. If your country isn't yet in the list, just create a new paragraph, or even a regional sub-chapter.

Bosnia & Herzegovina


Bulgaria

According to those people :

" OK, so the situation in Bulgaria is very different than in the other European countries.

There are no squats and autonomous centres!

There are problems with Nazis in cities like Sofia and Plovdiv, so you have to be very aware of this, especially if you're with a mohawk and dress like a punk.

Varna was much better, but the only DIY punk club was closed by the police two months ago and there is nothing happening right now there.

Bulgarian and Serbian are the most untolerant to gay people societies in Europe. 80% of Bulgarians are homophobes and some kind of nationalists. Punk shows are two types: completely apolitical or nazi-friendly. The hardcore scene is into tough guy macho beatdown or NYHC stuff without political messages. Very patriotic, sexist and homophobe.

There are environmentalist with a hippie attitude, some rastas and drum&bass fans that are cool people, but don't have any relevant political culture. There are bikers and they have a NGO called Bikevolution, they're cool people, but normal looking people with prejudices on punx with mohawks etc."

Unfortunately, my short experience there confirm this more or less :(
