On the programme today, we start with an overview of the leadings news stories and a weather report for tomorrow. 

Next, we will be happy to stay Chestita Baba Marta, Happy Granma March Day as it is a major spring holiday here when we adorn each other with martenitsas – how are the children from Bulgarian schools around the world celebrating?  

Also on the programme, RB’s travel editor Veneta Nikolova tells us more about what to expect in this year’s tourist programme at Bulgaria’s medieval capital Veliko Tarnovo, one of the most visited towns here.

At the end, as always, our daily offering of Bulgarian music, a song about today’s holiday.
