The event will start on 19th May with “OpeRose” - a mini festival dedicated to Emanuil Manolov – author of the first Bulgarian opera, written for the Kazanlak Opera theatre. The festive program of Kazanlak will offer music for everyone – all fans of ethno, jazz and camera music, open air spectacles, carnival, flash mob, planers, art exhibitions, workshops and demonstrations.

The official program of the holidays will be ready by the end of January. In February the program will be presented at “Vakancia expo” and in March at ITB “Berlin” with a special accent on the culture tourism.
