Audiences will be able to enjoy the performances of musicians from Bulgaria and abroad including two Grammy award winners - Antonio Sanchez and Brad Mehldau. A lifetime achievement award will be bestowed on legendary radio host Toma Sprostranov, who hosted a music show on the BNR’s Horizont channel for nearly 50 years.

The organizers will provide antigen testing on the spot at half-price, which take 20 minutes.
