Opera performances under the open sky will bring joy to music lovers this summer. The fourth edition of the Opera on the Sanctuary Festival will be held from August 5 to 26, on four consecutive Saturday evenings in the setting of the Thracian sanctuary of Begliktash near Primorsko. The organizers from the State Opera - Burgas and the Municipality of Primorsko promise a rich program with some of the most popular and beloved opera titles.

This year, the festival opens on August 5 with the performance "Samson and Delilah" by French composer Camille Saint-Saëns, under the baton of maestro Ivan Kozhuharov. On August 12, the audience will be able to watch "Nabucco" by Giuseppe Verdi under the baton of maestro Ivailo Krinchev.
