The heavy metal international music festival MetalDays has been held annually from 2013. The festival that takes place at Sotočje at Tolmin, in the beautiful surroundings of the Alps, is the successor of the Metalcamp, one of the central metal events in this part of Europe, which attracted a massive international audience of thousands of fans from Scandinavia, Germany, Austria, the Mediterranean countries and Slovenia since 2004.

The first edition of the Metaldays festival takes place from 21 July through 27 July 2013. It is organised by the old Metalcamp team that has conceived the programme that represents a wide variety of genres and sub-genres of metal with the addition of hardcore influenced styles in the 7-day gathering of bands performing on a couple of stages, including Annihilator, Hypocrisy, Iced Earth, In Flames, King Diamond, Mayhem, Sonata Arctica and Wintersun.
