The Minister of Tourism advisor, Zhivko Tabakov, took part in the official ceremony to unveil the 6th edition of the Fish Festival in Tsarevo. The event took place on September 4 at Michurin port, continuing until nightfall. He read a welcoming address on behalf of the Minister of Tourism, Nikolina Angelkova, expressing hopes that the celebration of this festival will again gather hundreds of tourists region-wide with its rich and diverse agenda.

The festival was first held six years ago. The idea is to make the culinary competition into a traditional one at each summer’s end, with locals and visitors to the town taking part in a competition to prepare fish delicacies.

According to Municipality data, this year’s visitors to the event were 6 000. The event commenced with an under-water fishing regatta and a music fiesta. The newly established traditional meeting of locals and tourists for the first time featured a bicycle tour.

The event’s agenda was joined by Emo Cholakov and other celebrities, with Uti Bachvarov preparing, in line with the tradition, Tsarevo-style mussels with rice for the thousands of guests. Musicians from Bulgaria Has Talent, Vivo Montana, the rock legends BTR, Raffy and Rewind provided good mood for everyone.
