In Burgas, the traditional Bulgarovo motorcade gathered many people under the Bulgarian tricolors on the festive March 3rd. The initiative is held for the ninth consecutive year.

The beginning was set at the Sea Station with attractive performances, after which a column of cars and motorcycles from different parts of the country passed through the central streets of the city.

The organizers emphasize that the procession is dedicated to the heroes who gave their lives for the Liberation of Bulgaria – therefore, their portraits led the participants.

The finale is traditionally in the town of Bulgarovo. There, the participants will head to a walking procession to the church "St. Atanasius", where flowers and wreaths will be laid in front of the ossuary in a sign of gratitude to all the beheaded Orthodox Christians in the church.

At 1:30 PM, the celebrations will continue with a folklore program in front of the Burgas Municipality building, followed by a walking procession "In honor of the heroes". The procession will end with a solemn march along "Aleko Bogoridi" Blvd. and laying of wreaths and flowers in front of the monuments of Vasil Levski and Hristo Botev.
