Downtown Copenhagen, Denmark, on the square in front of the municipality of Frederiksberg, a big Bulgarian horo has taken place. The dance was organized for the sixth consecutive year by the Dilmana Folk Dance Group (Copenhagen), which in 2020 celebrates 10 years since its establishment.

The start of the event, which took place on August 29, was given by Ambassador of Bulgaria to Denmark Svetlan Stoev, the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced.

Many Bulgarians and Bulgarian folk groups in Denmark danced to the sounds of masterpieces performed live by Bulgarian folk music orchestra "Orpheus".

The initiative, which aims to show the beauty of Bulgarian folk music and dance in Denmark, was planned for May 2020, but was postponed due to the epidemiological situation in the country.
