On October 14 and 15, 2023, in Demir Kapija, in the ROYAL WINE CITY, which will be specially formed for this event in the city square, the first International Wine Festival ROYAL WINE BALL - DEMIR KAPIJA 2023 will be held. Demir Kapija is a small, charming town in the southern part of the Republic of North Macedonia, 112 km south of the capital city Skopje and 112 km north of Thessaloniki. The town is crossed by the railway line Skopje - Thessaloniki and the E-75 highway of Corridor 10.

In addition to its priceless natural beauty and tourist potential, we are especially proud of the wine story, built and nurtured over the centuries. As early as 1928, Demir Kapija wine (Macedonian wine) was consumed in almost all royal courts in Europe. We will continue to tell this story through the organization of this festival and create the opportunity to connect and promote the wine and tourist potential of Balkan wineries and tourist entities.
