Stare Misto Lviv Rock Fest is an international music festival which takes place in Lviv, Ukraine annually since 2007. It is organized by the First Private Brewery (Преша Приватна Броварня), a local brewery. Despite its small scale, it is often considered one of the best festivals in Ukraine. It attracts both Ukrainian and European bands, such as Kaiser Chiefs, Esthetic Education, Gogol Bordello, IAMX, Archive and The Subways among others.
