Ravadinovo Village Festival, mid May
|
|
Ravadinovo Village Festival, mid May: The small village of Ravadinovo is only 5 km away from Sozopol, and was started from Bulgarian refugees coming from present day Turkey and Greece in the beginning of the century. The festival is a meeting point for all villagers boasting traditional food, music, and games including wrestling in the village square. Except for locals, this is not a widely popular event, which would allow you to experience genuine Bulgarian culture.

Petrova Niva Folk Festival, August 19
|
|
|
Festivities mark the anniversary of the Ilinden - Preobrazhenie Uprising for the liberation of Bulgarian territories from Turkey. A scenic drive about an hour away in the beautiful Stranja Mountain would take you to another very authentic experience. Folk dancers and musicians from all over the country, from small villages to big cities, perform at a scenic open air stage for two days. While enjoying traditional Bulgarian food and goodies in the area leading to the stage, bursting out of spontaneous dances and songs are commonplace. Also enjoy a church, museum, and a monument, as well as official visits from famous Bulgarian politicians. We provide 1 and 2 day trips to Petrova Niva.
