Producers from all over the country are presenting their products at the 31st edition of the Traditional Autumn Fair in Razgrad. The fair begins today in Razgrad City Park. The "Give a Hand" day centre for adults with disabilities and the "Janeta" association will also present handmade souvenirs.  In the evening there will be concerts on the Ronda stage. The fair lasts until 17 September.

The Razgrad Autumn Fair is a tradition that dates back to the first half of the 20th century and maintains the city's reputation as a meeting place for merchants, craftsmen and producers from the region and the country. The very first edition was held from 19 to 26 September 1921. The tradition was interrupted in 1950, but was revived in the 1990s.
