Thousands of enthusiasts are gathering on Saturday and Sunday in Bulgaria’s highest mountain Rila in the locality of the Seven Rila Lakes, a top destination for mountain lovers. The program of the festival includes a performance of the longest mountain chain dance (horo). Seven folk groups from seven ethnographic regions of Bulgaria will join the dance. If the weather is suitable there will be balloon flights above this breathtaking place. Persons with disabilities will be given priority among those willing to board the flights. The program also includes an attempt for a Guinness record for walking on a rope tied to two balloons. There will be more: at 2200 m above sea level the participants will get together to form with their bodies the biggest human inscription of “Bulgaria”. This will also try to enter the Guinness Book of Records for the biggest live crowd inscription performed with folk costumes.
