In Sozopol, again on the coast, the author of the song, Ken Hensley will sing some of his hits. The occasion will also be marked in the vicinity of Aleko Hut in the Vitosha Mountain near Sofia. The idea is launched July 1 to be officially recognized on the national and European level as the “Day of free spirit”. The event takes place with the media support of the BNR.
