Currency and payments

As of 2026 the official currency of Bulgaria is the Euro.
While payments by card are well accepted in most grocery stores, restaurants and some taxis, paying by cash is still the default way around here, especially in taxi or smaller shops/restaurants/etc.

At the event, in regards to competitions and T-shirts, we will accept cash only!

Public transport

Public transport in Sofia works from around 05:00 until around 00:00. There are also a few night lines that work between 23:30 and 03:30.
Everywhere in the public transport you can pay by card, no need to buy paper tickets. Price per ticket is 0.8€. If you travel a lot or change too many different vehicles, a total price of 2€ per day will be charged from your account, that’s the equivalent of a daily card.
If a public transport inspector shows up (they do that sometimes), just tap the card you paid with to their device and you’re good.
Important – use one card to buy ticket(s) for one person only. If you pay for 2 or more people with one card – it’s either not gonna work, or you will have a problem with the public transport inspector trying to prove how many tickets you paid for.
Night line N4 is the one that goes to the airport, but the only way to use it for getting to/from the venue is in a combination with night line N2.
