Circus, theatre, fire art, dance and youth workshops - all these arts are present at 6Fest. This is the first edition of the Street Arts Festival in Burgas, informs BTA.



The festival kicked off on Friday 11 October with a "Together" flash mob by local dance school Dune. Saturday's programme includes several workshops and performances at the International Youth Cultural Centre. The workshops are aimed at acquiring skills in circus and fire arts under the guidance of actors from the travelling theatre Skrin. Andrzej Soyka from the Skrin troupe will present his circus performance "Encounter". Shortly after, Daniana Koeva will welcome the audience with her fiery performance "The Other Face". 



6Fest is the first Bulgarian festival dedicated to performing street arts. It was founded in 2017 in Gabrovo and since 2019 it has been held in Plovdiv. In addition to Burgas, this year's festival included the towns of Yambol, Dzhebel, Sofia and Stara Zagora.
