The Apollonia Festival of Arts has been held since 1984. It is organized by the Apollonia Foundation, established in 1991. Each year, the stages of Apollonia in Sozopol attract hundreds of artists and thousands of art lovers from Bulgaria and abroad. The festival aims to preserve cultural traditions, while also supporting new talents across different art forms. This year’s programme includes more than 70 events in music, theater, literature, cinema, and visual arts.
