Spirit of Burgas is a summer music festival in the city of Burgas, on the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria. The first edition of the festival took place on 15–17 August 2008 and since then it has significantly grown in popularity, becoming one of the most prominent summer festivals in Europe. Among its partners and sponsors are MTV Europe, who aired two specials about the festival in September 2008, as well as Tuborg, Mobiltel, Jack Daniel's, Jacobs, and DSK Bank.

The festival area is located at the southern part of the Burgas See Garden. It includes also Burgas' central beach area. The main stage and some of the other stages are placed directly on the sand.

The premiere edition of the festival featured performers such as The Sisters of Mercy, Hot Club de Paris, Asian Dub Foundation, Pharoahe Monch, Upsurt, Cradle of Filth, Kosheen and Bonobo on the main stage. Besides the main stage, there were separate dance, rock, DJ, and Latino stages presenting well-known and aspiring artists alike. Among the more popular artists on the other stages were Chris Liebing, Andy Cato of Groove Armada, King Roc of Ministry of Sound, Pendulum, Wickeda and Deep Zone Project.
