  Non-central heavy ion collisions lead to the production of a quark gluon
plasma with angular momentum. We investigate, using holographic AdS/QCD models,
how does rotation of the medium affects the confinement/deconfinement
transition temperature $T_c$. In holographic models, this transition is
represented by a Hawking-Page process involving two asymptotically anti-de
Sitter spaces. The plasma is represented here by extending the holographic
approach to anti-de Sitter spaces with cylindrical symmetry. Then, the rotation
of the medium is introduced through a Lorentz boost. We consider hard and soft
wall AdS/QCD models. In both cases we find it out that, as the rotational
velocity $v$ increases, $T_c$ decreases, following the expression $T_c(v) =
T_c(0)/\gamma(v)$, where $\gamma(v)$ is the Lorentz factor.
