Participants from Bulgaria, Romania and Serbia are taking part in the folklore music and dance festival "The Rivers Danube and Timok Connect Us", which is underway on Saturday and Sunday in Kapitanovtsi, close to the meeting point of the three countries' borders. The festival is aimed to preserve and promote folk traditions and cultural exchange in the cross-border area.

The event opened with a celebration dedicated to children. The festivities were officially launched by the village mayor, Desislava Venelinova, who welcomed residents and visitors.

Performers from Serbia and Romania will join in on Sunday. "Their participation is proof that music and dance will always demonstrate the friendship that unites us," Venelinova said, calling on residents and visitors alike to show the hospitality of Kapitanovtsi and respect for folk traditions.
